“Maybe I’m being ungrateful or immature or unrealistic to want more. I’ve done well. I’ve been blessed. I should be content with what I have already achieved.” Have you ever tried to suppress your longing for more with such words? Even as you console yourself with gratitude for what you have, you may not be able to shake a deep yearning for more. You can be the most grateful person in the world, but if you have not arrived at the place God wants you to be, to do the thing God has destined you and only you to do, that longing will never go away.
