Misery

When I find myself discontent with my lot in life, angry and disappointed with God--you know, miserable, the reason is always the same. Arrogantly, I am refusing to accept that my lot in life is His will for my life. It's amazing how things change--how I change--when I embrace my circumstances as His will. How do I do that? Use His strength--enough is promised for each day--to do what He has called me to do to the best of my ability. And love with all my heart all those He has placed in my circumstances with me. Why do I so often forget that God's will is not to glorify me--that I am not the center of His plans. He has instead placed me in the center of His plans for my life that I might glorify Him in all things.
