Never satisfied!!

The more we have, the more we want...

I guess this is a struggle or so called ambition that most people have at one stage of their lives or even throughout their lives. You say, "if just I can have that, then I will feel content." You have it then there are more of that saying, this time, it is even fancier.

Being brought up not in a rich family, I thought having certain achievement can make me really grateful and content forever. Indeed, I did in the beginning. I was so thankful for getting a "thing" till I don't care that I have to make sacrifices on other things. Now, I have taken the "thing" for granted! I don't feel thankful anymore and I want more of other things. I end up making excuse for not being satisfied and can't feel content and thankful.

Just if this desire is to know God more and more and to never feel content of with what I have in him.. that will be amazing!!
But why? Why is this desire for something else?

But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.

The fifth week

Aaarrrggghhh!!!

Man, this year is different!!!
It feels hard in many ways, yet I don't know what makes it hard!!

I hope the year does not go pass so quickly before me grasp the lesson God wants to teach me.

So many to do, so little time...
So many people I want to see, talk, hang out with, etc
But I can't find the time!!!

Arrggghhh..
Lord, may my soul find rest in you.
Help me to set my life right before you and other things shall follow.
For you, O Lord, hold everything

May comfort fills your people in Japan and Christchurch;
May your name be glorified

For you O Lord, worthy of our lives
