Are you dissatisfied?

My wife and I are always talking about what we can do to improve our home. We love our house, but we're never quite satisfied with how it looks. In our first 4 years of living there, we installed 4 different kitchen floors before we found the one we really loved. Every time we change or add something, we're content for a short time and then it's time to do more. We always want to add that extra little something to make it more "us".

Don't get me wrong...it's not that we're not thankful for or happy with our house...we just know there's always something else we can change or add to make it even better.

Our spiritual lives are like that. When we get to the point where we're satisfied with where we are, we need to stop and take a hard look at ourselves. I believe that God wants us to continually work to improve our prayer times, devotional times, service, worship, and every other aspect of our spiritual lives. There is always room to grow.

So it's OK to be dissatisfied with where your are today...that dissatisfaction will lead to a better tomorrow.
