Camplaining to Joy
Every feel like complaining. You know, just letting some steam off. Have you ever just wanted to tell God how you feel.
Well go ahead! That’s right…go ahead and tell Him. While you’re at it read the book of Habakkuk. It’s short and sweet. And it has everything you probably need.
You see Habakkuk was in a position where everyone around was doing evil. And if that wasn’t enough, they were living the life.
So the only place he could go was to the Lord.
Read Habakkuk (it’s short don’t worry)
Twice he complained to the Lord about the situation. And twice the Lord replied.
But in the final chapter Habakkuk’s attitude changed a little. He wasn’t so concerned about the prosperity of wicked people. He came to realize, however, that God is God, and as he “saw” this powerful glory, his heart pounded.
So the next time you need to let something out. Take it to the Lord.
I’m sure your complaining will turn to joy, just like Habakkuk’s.
P.D.
