If David complained…

IF DAVID COMPLAINED…

If King David, the man according to God’s heart, complained, that helps me not feel too bad when sometimes I want to complain due to problems in life.

It’s natural that human beings sometimes feel frustrated, even mad in front of the continuous challenges of this world.

We feel like complaining when:

• When we see unjust acts.
• When we are disrespected at work or at a store
• When we are taken advantage of by a mechanic, plumber, electrician etc.
• When we feel powerless in the face of the corruption of political systems,
• Financial and even religious.
• When we see so much poverty and inequality in the world.
• When we see countries where the leaders abuse people.
• When we realize that a child was abused in school or even at home.
• When we are criticized and false things are said about us because we did something good.

We can complain once in a while to God, but we should not leave our purpose.

Think about it: 
What produces anger or frustration?
Do you complain with God or with everyone around you?
What helps you to go from complaining to grateful?
