Don't Complain



Think Of What Your Self-Talk Is Saying

Don't complain of what you don't have. Be thankful for the blessings you do have. No one said that life was always fair. Remember, we don't get what we truly deserve or most of us would live a very down trodden life. God has given us talents to overcome most of our shortcomings. If we live for Him, He will show us the way to utilize the opportunities before us to bring happiness and joy to our living.

You say your job isn't what it should be. Step out and prepare yourself for a better job by going to night school or taking correspondence classes or enlisting in an apprentice program. You can obtain the training for a job more suitable to your talents.

You say you don't have the money to live a normal life. Right now, sit down and make yourself a budget. Then, live below your means until you are free from debt. You can overcome the insidiousness of a debt burden.

You say your relationships are always strained. Remember, you must give if you are to receive. What have you given to the relationship? If you've given your all and it is not returned, you need to get out of the relationship and move on. Don't allow others to destroy your opportunity for happiness in life.

You say life has been unfair to you. Then, it's time to reach out to others. As you help others overcome the disparity of life's experiences, you will be able to master your own talents for the better good of all. Life is not really yours, you know. It's lent to you for a time by the Giver of life. Don't put your trust in the gift. Put your trust in the Giver.

Don't feel sorry for yourself. Look at the talents God has given you. Know of your abundance in the Lord. Give of yourself to others and you won't find a need to complain about your very being.
