My friend Mark Pryor has the following on his blog The Journey today.....
He that is discontented in one place will seldom be content in another. ~ Aesop
I have seen more than one good saint of God struggle with this....
Jacob the supplanter was never content....
He came out of his mother's womb grappling his twin's ankle and was never contented with his brother's blessings or even his father in law's flocks...
A personal experience years later with an angel left him crippled....
And changed......
Friend of mine, Paul said it this way....
Be content whatever condition you find yourself in....
Jealousy and envy only cause for heartache....
Accept yourself and your giftings and limitations for what they are and allow yourself to be all you can be for HIM....
You will be amazed with what he can do with you when you accept who you are.....
Blessings...

AWESOME post. I'm updating that quote with a link to this. :-)
Short, to the point, and very effective. Thanks for the reminder.
