The year was 1981…Life seemed so ideal.
Soon though that ideal picture would begin to fade and a real but often more unsatisifactory picture would become a reality. I wish I could tell my “younger” self how find satisfaction in life when life seems so unsatisfactory
1. Thank God For what you have
–Thank God that your job
–Thank God for the relationships you have as imperfect as they are. Be glad /thankful you aren’t going through life on your own.
2. View your job as God’s provision
— To supply your basic necessities
–Allowing you to serve Him and do His will at work, in your community and around the world
3. Realize You were not created find satisfaction in your job, family, or friends but in God alone.
–It is through faith in Jesus that we find our greatest only true satisfaction- purpose and peace as we look to him in love, to worship and serve.
–It is there that our unsatisfactory life becomes completely satisfying.
