It’s So Easy To Constantly Complain About Things

Happy Monday! I hope that your weekend was great. As I reflect over my last week, I admit it has been a busy one. There were times when I felt like I was being pulled in all different directions and I have caught myself grumbling and complaining. It’s so easy to constantly complain about things.

We have been through a rough two years. In fact, it doesn’t look like things are getting better.

God does answer our prayers but doesn’t answer complaints. On many days it is so easy to focus more on our problems then our blessings.

When we complain, we are literally wasting our time. Complaining does not change one thing about our life.

I don’t have a bubbly personality so it is hard for me to be positive all of the time. I have to work at being positive and thankful because it’s so easy to constantly complain about things.

1 Thessalonians 5: 16-18 states, “Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”

Being thankful is not a one time thing. It is something that we do throughout the day. A prayer of thanksgiving is the kind of prayer that Jesus answers.

Philippians 4:6-7 states, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.”

“Complain and remain, praise and be raised.” ~Joyce Meyer

Go to God with thanksgiving. No matter how bad it gets, God is still good and we are blessed!
