Satisfaction to me is a journey NOT a destination. I am happy for my life but not yet satisfied however i remain grateful to God.

No I am not..until I discover God's purpose for me and begin to live in it..I will not b satisfied. God please speak to me!

God's purpose for you is to be fisher of men.God has clearly defined our purpose on earth,it is our greed and quest for wordly things that has blindfolded us from these facts and makes one think until u ave all the worldly things,u re not yet satisfied wit ur life,many pastors confuse u to expecting to hear God speak to you,God has left us with the way the truth and the light.so its left for us to use his words to lead us right

I cannot be satisfied with the life am living when I cannot be a "Rockefeller".....when poverty, sicknesses and death are rife in the continent, where students get admission with excellent grades and can't get into school, where one is shopping and beggars who can't command 2 square meals are loittering around...Hell NO! I must fulfill certain things before I can be satisfied.....

The only time man gets satisfied with self is immediately after a major break-even. These diminishes as our insatiability-nature sets in. That's why Dangote is so stingy.

so how do I identify his voice..how do I know that it is Him speaking.
Through constant fellowship with him.. Imagine you not having any quiet time with God, how will you you recognize his voice.. So, move close to him and you will hear him..
Shalom

The truth is people naturally don't get satisfied with what they have.

Only a Starting point no ending point in God.
Re: Are You Satisfied With The Life You're Living? by aniffy4eva(m): 9:17am On Oct 06, 2014
Yes I'm satisfied.

I believe satisfaction is a state of mind. It doesn't connote lack of desire but contentment with where you are at the moment. I dare say that people that are satisfied are usually people with a long term plan and are working that plan. (Though not always)

Let me put this in context. If my plan/desire is to erect a building and according to my plan, it will take 9 months. If at month 3, I'm doing well/according to plan, and you ask me the OP's question - though I haven't finished the building, my response will be yes, I'm satisfied.

However when you focus on the future, your level of satisfaction is usually determined by the quality of your preparation and the depth of your conviction.

Whenever I read comments of people who do not know dia purpose in life, I feel like writing a book on d subject.

Well, I advise u read 'purpose driven life' by rick warren and 'ur assignment' by mike murdock. These two books shd open ur eyes of understanding.

As for me,i am fully satisfied,no regrets,looking to the future. What about you ?

To say u are 'satisfied' with ur life doesnt make u look humble. Rada it makes u look mediocre. It reveals dat u hav no dreams, no vision, no passion and no goals and no purpose. U cant hav all dis and be satisfied cos der is always sth to pursue, no mata wot u hav attained.

But den life is personal. One man's goal in life mite be to own an aquarium in his living room and another man's goal mite be to own a fish pond dat will feed a town.

Am not criticising u sha, if dats d way u want to live ur life, kudos to u.

Broda if we are misundastanding u, maybe its becos ur using d wrong word.

But den even in ur relationship with God, u shdnt be satisfied. Even Paul sed 'dat I may know him and d power of His ressurection'. Der is so much to learn abt God so why shd u be satisfied? Der is so much to learn abt people, der is so many ppl dat ur life shd impact so why shd u be satisfied? Dont u hav new people oriented goals? Dont u hav new goals for the Kingdom of God?

So u see dear, 'satisfied' is such a wrong word and such a wrong state of mind. cheesy
