"Better is an handful with quietness, than both the hands full with travail and vexation of spirit." (Ecclesiastes 4:6)
Today, I am grateful for the fact that I can possess little yet have peace in God. Abundance doesn't guarantee peace. How many wealthy families dread getting together because of inner turmoil? No amount of personal possessions can make up for a right relationship with the Lord.
Do you have only a few possessions? Have things been lean this year? Are you walking with God? If the answer to this last question is Yes, then you have all that truly matters.
According to this verse, I am better off with comparatively little but having the peace of Christ in my heart. True peace does not have a price tag.
