Philippians 4:12

The question persists: why uproot at the time when I am finally finding my niche in the greater DSM/Ames communities? Well, it's hard to explain, but comfort is rather uncomfortable. Here's my best go at an explanation:

My small group is starting a study of Philippians and I was checking out what I've noted in my Bible from the last time I read it and I found Philippians 4:12 (KJV) -

"I know both how to be abased and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need."

This verse spoke to me when I first read it and it speaks to me now. I feel "instructed both to abound and to suffer need". Ya dig?
