My real mother would always complain how horrible her life was - TopicsExpress

My real mother would always complain how horrible her life was complain and complain about everything. I think being miserable was her favorite sport. She talked a lot about how she just wish she were dead. I never had the heart to tell her she was already dead though I did try to talk to her about Jesus. The last time I spoke to her all she could talk about was how much she hated her damned life. Shes been dead about a month now and doubt very seriously that she likes the life she has now for all eternity. God talks about those who hate him and complainers and those who are never satisfied or happy. When we feel angry or bitter left out or just pitying ourselves maybe we havent bothered to look around and be thankful for what we do have. The truth is we probably and almost certainly are guilty of not praying and studying Gods word. If we were doing what God directly told us to do maybe we wouldnt have time to cry about everything? God knows our needs and he promises to meet all of our needs if we are living as he wills us to. Is He a liar? or are we not living right? It cant be both. He never promised us hed meet all of our greeds he said needs to all those who want a Joel Osteen false religion perspective. So the next time we want to gripe and grumble start with prayer say Father please forgive my unfaithfulness and unthanksfulness and my selfishness and open my eyes to how glorious and marvelous you really are. Let me see and understand how awesome you have been to me and my family and friends. How much better I am off than many I know. Help me Lord to be a blessing and not a curse which I know is what I am when I am angry bitter and complaining. Fill me with the Holy Spirit and with that joy and peace that passes all human understanding and realize its been there since you saved me I am just to self centered to see it and be thankful. I praise thee for all you do for me and ask forgiveness for not being what you would have me to be please guide and direct my every path in Jesus Holy name I pray amen.
