Philippians 4:11-12

International Children’s Bible

¹¹ I am telling you this, but it is not because I need anything. I have learned to be satisfied with the things I have and with everything that happens. ¹² I know how to live when I am poor. And I know how to live when I have plenty. I have learned the secret of being happy at any time in everything that happens. I have learned to be happy when I have enough to eat and when I do not have enough to eat. I have learned to be happy when I have all that I need and when I do not have the things I need.
