COMPLAINING
Today's reading:  Numbers 21-24

"...but the people grew impatient along the way and they began to murmur against God and Moses.  Why have you brought us out of Egypt to die here in this wilderness? They complained.  There is nothing here to eat and nothing to drink.  And we hate this wretched manna!  So The Lord send poisonous snakes among them, and many of them were bitten and died."  Numbers 21:4-5 NLT

Complaining.  Are you guilty of it?

Do you think it is done in jest?  Do you go on and on about all that is piled on your plate, all you have chosen to do, all that is required of you?

Are those around you tired of hearing about it?

Truth be told, we have nothing to complain about.

And to add insult to injury, few, if any, want to hear about it.

Including God.

In all reality, when we complain, or murmur as the Israelites did, we are doing it against Him--the Giver of all we have!

Think about what others hear you saying.  Think about what God hears you say.

And--watch out for snakes!!
