Be Content

Joel Osteen used to say a lot, "If you needed it you would have it." 

You may not have everything you want, but you most likely have all that you need. The more you give to others, the more God will give to you. "Look out not just for your own interests but also the interests of others." It's not all about you. What you want matters some, but consider what others want too. 

The most depressed people are depressed because they are the most selfish people. All they think about is what they want 24/7. This is why having pets can be very therapeutic. You finally think of something besides yourself. 

So many people could not care less what other people want. Those people will never be happy because they are the most selfish people on the planet. They get what they want all the time. They think that will make them happy, but they feel guilty all the time. They know that is not how God intended the world to be. They know they are supposed to share with others but they don't care. 

Don't be selfish like that. If you want to actually be happy, be content with less and share with other people. Decide to care about what others want. 

Be content so you will love others better. God bless.
