1 Timothy 6:6
Now godliness with contentment is great gain.

How do we measure success? Do we measure it by productivity or a booming bank balance? Or do we measure success by achieving contentment?

Jeff ran a small business. He was soon making good money, but, sadly, he failed to acknowledge God and was never content. He pressed forward in blind ambition. One day, Jeff entered into a deal that failed. Soon his company collapsed, leaving him in debt and destitute.  

The scripture says that unless the Lord builds the house, the labourers labour in vain. It also says that whatever we do, we should walk in godliness and acknowledge God in all our ways. My encouragement to you today is to get out from under God’s feet and into his hands. Acknowledge the Lord and be content in the level of success he brings your way. As Benjamin Franklin Said, "Content makes poor men rich; discontent makes rich men poor." 

God-tracking is being content to work hand-in-hand with God
