Most people
go through life whining, complaining and grumbling about everything. The children
of Israel were whining masters. One moment, they were thirsty, grumbled, and
God gave them water. Moments later, they were hungry, grumbled again, God gave
them manna, they kept quiet. Before long, something else happened and they
started whining again.
One of the
reasons why a whole lot of people are on the losing side is because they are
part of the whining team and as such, it becomes very hard for them to see
opportunities. The disciples were with Jesus and were still complaining of no
food to use in feeding the people that had come to listen to Him. Whining
renders faith futile.
Stop going
about complaining to people, 50% are glad you are suffering. The remaining 50%
are sympathizing because they aren’t the victims. Whining is a permanent
solution for a temporary problem. What you are going through is just for a while;
Bible says in Psa 30:5 that, “weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in
the morning.” Stop whining and start winning.
Stop
complaining about your little family background or academic qualification. Job
8:7 says, “Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase.”
Sir, can you change what has happened? No! One English adage says, “It is too late
to cry when the head is off the neck.” Whiners don’t win and winners don’t whine.
Winners are always optimistic about life, they look on the bright side of life
every time.
The disciples
complained of too many people and little food, while Jesus won that day as
always because He doesn’t whine, rather, He gave thanks for the little and it
became big. Stop the grumbling and always have it at the back of your mind that
our job is to give thanks in ALL things.
Father, I refuse
to end up a whiner but a winner in Jesus Name. Amen!
