How is it that the list of good that we do in this world still can leave us feeling sad?

Could I or should I choose something else to do? 

Perhaps something less meaningful and less selfless? 

But I always talk myself back to watering the grass I am on and being content with where God has me. I pick up my boot straps and I get back at it.

 

I've always known that this life is not about me.

I have always known that we will face challenges and trials of many kind - it says so in the bible.

 

So how is it that we can do really good work and still be sad?

 

The truth is, we have expectations and desires that aren’t always met.
