goats and the fence

Yesterday, we were driving down the road and saw some goats eating through the fence, nearly choking themselves trying to get at the grass on the otherside. I was a little baffled by the thought because the grass was 2 feet tall on the inside of the fence, yet they were still trying to reach outside the fence.
But then the thought occured to me that we are just like those goats, thinking that things outside the boundaries of what God has laid is better than what is inside. The saying is not necessarily true-although goats obviously think so. The grass is not always greener on the otherside. Living within God's provisions is a good thing-otherwise we get choked on the fence...straining to live in both worlds.
So don't be a goat-enjoy the provisions of the Lord and quit straining for things that are outside the fence. ALL FOR YOU
