God will provide for his children.
Matthew 6:25-27
Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?
We can also be greedy and give into our flesh and want more, more, and more. God has placed you at the exact place and the exact time your in for a reason. God has a plan for our lives that is beyond what we could ever imagine, but it is carried out in HIS time. It's like life is a book about you, and no matter how fast we want to get to the end to see what happens, God flips the pages at HIS own pace. Be content with where God has you at this moment. This is what Paul says about being content:
Philippians 4:12-13
I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want. I can do everything through him who gives me strength.
Think about it! If you try to rush along to get to the "Good stuff" you will probably miss out on the blessings God had for you. Also, if you reached the "Good stuff" it wouldn't be good because God didn't have a chance to prepare you for it. God equips his called, in his time, and then sends them. Look around! You will realize that the things going on in your life now is already the "Good Stuff!"
