Godly contentment it would seem covers all situations if Paul includes knowing "how to abound." To me this means I shouldn't feel guilty for having more than others. This abundance enables me to enjoy sharing with others while still have enough left over to enjoy the comforts of life. I learned this, though, by first learning to be content with little. Then God entrusted me with more, knowing I would use it to His glory. Like the bountiful blossoms on my Dogwood tree, my life abounds with God's blessings with which I am further blessed by sharing.
