God surpasses our dreams when we reach past our personal plans and agenda to grab the hand of Christ and walk the path he chose for us.  He is obligated to keep us dissatisfied until we come to him and his plan for complete satisfaction.

About This Quote

The author of this quote is unknown. However, the message is clear. God desires to lead us on a relentless course he has chosen for us. He wants us to be more than satisfied with what he gives us, but frustrated with what we do not have.

The author of this quote also shows that our frustrations are not about the world around us, but about what we think we should have. It is hard to be discontent with the world if you are satisfied with it. It is hard to be discontent with God if you think you understand him well enough.
