”Do all things without complaining and disputing.” (Philippians 2:14) We got it honest, our unwillingness to accept the reality that the Lord has allowed us to experience. There are times when reality is not convenient and we will try everything in our power to change it. Yet, a wise woman once said, “What God does not hinder, he allows.” We could endure the experience much better if we accept our reality and not “kick against the pricks.” ”Instead of complaining about your experience or rejecting what you are feeling, what if you accepted the moment for what it is? What if you stopped thinking about all of the ways in which the moment could be better? What if you stopped resisting your reality? When you give up your resistance, you open yourself to the joy, freedom, and possibility that exist in every moment.” “Overcoming implies conflict. Depend on it. If you conquer a wandering heart, you will have to fight for it. “To him that overcomes,” says He, ‘will I give to eat of the tree of life.’ You must fight your way back to the garden of the Lord. You will have to fight against lethargy, against an evil heart of unbelief, against the benumbing influence of the world. In the name and power of Him who bids you repent, you must wrestle and struggle till you get the mastery over self, and yield your whole nature to your Lord.” Charles Spurgeon Conquer Complaining!
