The Apostle Paul writes about the key to excellent life. His circumstances, of plenty or lack, did not dictate whether truly lived life, not merely existing. His secret was to do all things through Christ, who gave him strength. His focus and faith was in Christ, not the changes to his situation.
Can you say with Paul, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me?”
I know how to live on almost nothing or with everything. I have learned the secret of living in every situation, whether it is with a full stomach or empty, with plenty or little. For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength. (Philippians 4:13-14 NLT)

We can and should definitely try to follow the example the Apostle Paul has set for us and do all things through Christ and not being tossed about through adverse circumstances.
