Scripture

  1. Matthew 6:11 [1]
    Give us this day our daily bread, (ESV)
  2. Proverbs 30:8–9 [1]
    Remove far from me falsehood and lying; give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with the food that is needful for me, lest I be full and deny you and say, “Who is the LORD?” or lest I be poor and steal and profane the name of my God. (ESV)
  3. 1 Timothy 6:6–8 [1]
    But godliness with contentment is great gain, for we brought nothing into the world, and we cannot take anything out of the world. But if we have food and clothing, with these we will be content. (ESV)
  4. 1 Timothy 4:4–5 [1]
    For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving, for it is made holy by the word of God and prayer. (ESV)
