It is not material wealth that makes you rich. It is having Jesus—your greatest wealth!

So why is a Car's

important as our FUTURE. So, Look

STABILITY God has given us peace so that we can be stable even in the midst of hard times. In John 14:27, Jesus says, "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives."by Citicola
Jesus' peace, however, isn't like the world's peace, which depends on your circumstances; rather, God's peace is internal. God's peace allows believers to be stable even in the midst of hard circumstances, difficult trials, and uncertain times.
"I have learned to be content whatever the circumstances. I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want." (Philippians 4:11-12). What was Paul's "secret"? "I can do everything through him who gives me strength" (Philippians 4:13).
The key to contentment and stability is living in, through, and with God in everything. Like Paul, a mature Christian is able to remain content and stable in all circumstances.
Never design your character, like a garden where anybody can walk in but rather design it like the sky to which every desires to reach.

Things which are complicated in life do not benefit people that much as compared to simple things, so sometimes learn to try simple things, than complicating everything.

comfort. Often, that kind of loving honesty calls for sharp words.
