I am content right where I am in life

So often, I compare myself to others or think they have it easier or someone is way prettier than me, etc.  There are times I wish I had what others had.  However, lately I have had a feeling of content with my life.  I know God has this magnificent plan for my life. He has so much planned for only me...things that only I can accomplish. 2 Corinthians 5:9 says "So whether we are here in this body or away from this body, our goal is to please him."  Our goal should be to please Him in everything we do.  We don't have to please others or try to impress others or live up to what they expect out of us.  Our ultimate goal should be to please Him!   Recently, I can honestly say I am content with where I am in life.  I have a job I enjoy, a husband who loves me more than anything else and think I am incredibly beautiful and tells me that often, and a church family who I can count on thru life's ups and downs.  Yes, I still sometimes wish I was prettier or more in shape, or have what others have, but overall, God has helped me be content with my life.  He has plans for me, and I am right where I need to be for Him! I pray that He can continue to use me and that I can be all I can be for Him!  My goal is to please HIM!!!
