It is often that we don't appreciate what we have, but we appreciate what others have. The reason is, we seldom notice our self in good for what we already have. We want to acquire more but later don't use and just keep it. Try to look back and examine what you are and what you have, learn to appreciate and discover their use. You might be glad later on, if you've found out something that is more better than what you want to acquire.
Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, let us use them: if prophecy, let us prophesy in proportion to our faith; Or ministry, let us use it in our ministering; he who teaches, in teaching.Romans 12:6,7
