God is so good
Starting off the new year i have really realized how good God is to me. I have a home, friends and family, food, clothing, access to the Internet where i can talk to friends and do other things for enjoyment, good schooling, money, and more. A lot of times all of us who have these things take them for granted. We don't remember that some don't even have a meal everyday. or that some don't have a roof over their heads.
When you think about how much we have, it's kinda pathetic when we whine about things we don't have. We get upset because things don't go just the way we planned them.
"I don't have the latest video game. Everyone else does. Life is so unfair."
"Look at what he got for Christmas when all i got was. . ." and we go on to list ten or so things. Did you know there are kids around the world who are starving on Christmas day? Who don't even know what a video game is, and who have never gotten a gift for Christmas.
I struggle like everyone else with complaining. So am praying for God's help to be content with what i have, to not complain. God is so good, we should not be complaining, but we should definitely be thanking him.
