Grumble or grateful? 1 Corinthians 10:10

Hello everyone. God is good all the time, all the time God is good. TOO BLESSED TO BE STRESSED!


    Grumble, do you grumble?  1 Corinthians 10:10 "Don't grumble as some of them did, and then were destroyed by the angel of death."


   Paul warned the Corinthian believers not to grumble.  We start to grumble when our attention shifts from what we have to what we don't have.  The people of Israel didn't seem to notice what God was doing for them- setting them free, making them a nation, giving them a new land.  They were so wrapped up in what God wasn't doing for them they did not see the blessings.  They thought of the delicious Egyptian food they had left behind. (Numbers 11:5)
  
   Before we judge the Israelites we need to think about what occupies our attention most of the time.  Are we grateful for what God has given us, or are we always thinking about what we would like to have?  Don't allow your unfulfilled desires to cause you to forget God's gifts of life, family, friends, food, health and work.


     So, it is your choice, Mr/Ms Grumble or Mr/Ms Grateful.  Choose carefully my friend. Love you all.


In Christ's Love and Grace
