Scripture: Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need. I can do all things through him who strengthens me. (Philippians 4:11-13 ESV)

Observation: in the ups and downs of life, Christ is the plumb line and the only constant.

Application: Our desire for Christ must be greater than the desire of the flesh.

Prayer: Daddy, let us measure ourselves against the plumb line of Christ, seeking You above all else.  May the things of the flesh grow dim in our walk with You.  Thank You for being a God that pursues us.  Amen.
