Can Philippians 4:13 Be My Weight Loss or Fitness Inspiration Verse?

“I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength.” Do you have Philippians 4:13 memorized or on a Christian t-shirt. Have you recited it before the big test or the big game? Have you used it to be your weight loss or fitness goal motivation verse?

If you have, no shame or blame here. But, today Heather tackles what Philippians 4:13 is really trying to teach us. It’s a message in contentment. It’s a passage that reveals our struggle with covetousness, and it’s a verse that encourage us that we can be strong in finding satisfaction in Christ alone, whether or not we’ve achieved our personal goals.

Is Philippians 4:13 about weight loss and fitness goals? Or is it about contentment?
