I can relate to your concern about discontentment. I struggle with the same thing. You're right when you say we are right where God wants us to be. I have one concern about your article, though. What happened to the elderly lady with no coat and no shoes? Did you go back to help her?

Sometimes, just knowing that you are not alone is enough to start the healing process. I moved around alot as a child and even though my adult life longed for stability, when I finally received it, I became bored. Thanks for sharing your story. It's nice to know that our weaknesses actually can be someone elses strength. God Bless You

Thank you very much for your article. I have been having mental wars lately. It is good to know you are not alone in these wars. I have been trying to quieten myself by less activity. I now know my healing comes from "thinking" of what God has done and not what he has not done. This produces gratitude. I'm really so glad am not alone cos sometimes I just feel terrible with discontent.
