STOP COMPLAINING AND START THANKING GOD


We live a world full of complains, we complain about almost everything, let us stop worrying and complaining and start appreciating what God has blessed us with, God has given life to us and want us to stop complaining and start appreciating all He has done for us.
Thank God for the life He gave you as some has lost it in accidents, murders, sicknesses and are in graves and wished they were alive, thank God for giving you food and stop complaining about the little food you get as some don’t have anything to eat and would be happy even to get two slices of bread as they don’t know where their lunch, breakfast and supper would come from.
Stop worrying about wearing cheap shoes as there are many who don’t have them and walk barefoot everyday and during winter, it is a struggle as the cold penetrates through their feet up to the whole body and they would love to have those shoes you call cheap. Stop complaining and start thanking God for giving you your parents as the are a lot of children who don’t have parents as some were killed, sick and some lying in hospitals, while others wish their parents were with them to comfort them during hardships of life, others never felt the love of their parents.
Stop complain about the work you do or the little money you earning and thank God for giving you a job as there are a lot of unemployed people who would appreciate the little money you complain about and work you do just to put bread on the table, feed their children and take them to school, they would use the opportunity fully if given a chance, yes the very thing you complain about they would use it to change their lives and better it.
Stop complaining about how hard school is or how many times you failed at school as the are those who never went to school and don’t know the smell of chalk or the size of a school chair or the feeling of being taught, some grew up in farms and were disadvantaged because of their situations they previously faced.
Stop complaining about the hardships you are facing and thank God that He is with you in the hardship you are in and preparing you for something big that will bring glory to Him and make it a spiritual eye opener to you so that you can praise God. Stop complaining and start praising God. To God be the Glory.
