1 Timothy 6:6 Now godliness with contentment is great gain.
Have you ever thought about what godliness (or piety) in this verse actually means?
None of us is perfect, in fact most of us are as far from perfect as could be so let us not think of it as being anything like perfect.
Godliness can be seen as being closer to God’s ways; perfection is God, not His ways. Instead we should combine all of the ways together: faith, hope, love, fear, humbleness, trust… the list is actually quite long!
How about the outward showing of the inward ways God would have us to be like?
