139. Feeling discontent, unsatisfied and always chasing the next best thing? 3 tips to enjoying the season you are in right now!
Have you ever compared your life to others? Or wished you could be some place else? Some place that seemed better? Imagining your life in the greener grass? And then when you actually switched into a new place, a new house, new car, more kids, got married, whatever….you realized none of that makes you truly happy?
Encouragement for you today!
1) Enjoy the moment/stage of life/season you are in- Enjoy the now!
Matthew 6:34- Therefore do not worry about tomorrow , for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
Don’t worry about what is coming and don’t strive to have better. Just appreciate what is right in front of you!
Which of course brings me to Gratitude. Do you have a gratitude journal? IF not it’s TIME my friend. Start with 5 things for the day and move to 10! You will be surprised how quickly your perspective changes!! When we think on the things God HAS given us instead of things we wished we had…it changes our outlook and how we look at our lives. When we change our view on our own world don’t you think that will spill into our kids, husbands, friends, family, all our circle of influence? I’m here to tell you that it will! Try it and let me know how it goes in the FB group or on any of the socials! I’d love to hear from you!!
2) STOP the comparison!!
Gal. 1:10- For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ.
This is an honest scripture with a really good question. When we are comparing our lives to others, are we seeking God’s approval or others? Something to really think about!! This is another way to shift our view on this subject. So next time you are on your fav social platform and you start to wish you were somewhere else or with someone else or had something better….think on this. Are you trying to win approval of God or man? Just gonna leave that there :)
3)Just keep your eyes on Jesus friend
Hebrews 12:And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.
EEEK soooo much goodness here!!
