I must admit this particle post was not my original idea. The seed was planted in my spirit when I attended a Wednesday night bible study at "LightChurch" in Mesquite TX.
Every since I heard and receive the message I have become sensitized about what comes out of my mouth. I automatically begin to shut down when people start complaining.
The scripture of focus was Philippians 2:14.
EVERYTHING, covers a lot of ground. I am not a big complainer by no means but I do complain. I complain about having to go to work while on the other hand I am thanking God that I have a job.
Does one action cancel out the other?
Should we consider this to be a double negative?
Whether we are in church or at a business event the message is the same. Negativity has an adverse affect on the speaker and the receiver.
So why entitle this post "Resting in life's Moments" and not " Don't be Lame, Don't Complain". I must admit that made me smile.
Often, when we complain we are letting life's precious moment pass us by. For every complaint there is a missed opportunity to be a blessing to someone else. I believe accountability is the key to change so I am challenging myself, as well as you, to rest in life's moments.
