Self Development

You will never figure out the Lesson if you keep on Complaining to God

You can either make the most of your situation, or you can focus on the negative things that are going on around you. You can dwell on your failures, or you can apply the lessons. You always have a choice. Remember that you can’t control your situation, but you always have the freedom to choose your reactions. Do not allow your circumstances to dictate your behavior. Do not focus on what’s lacking. Instead, look at the blessings around you. Try to dig the treasures behind all the problems that God allowed you to face. There are so many things that you can learn, and you can maximize all your resources if you only stop complaining.

God is listening to your concerns. He is not deaf. He knows what you need. So stop repeating those things that you hate. The more you talk about them, the more you allow the negative thoughts to fully consume your decisions. You may think that nobody cares for you, but the truth is, God is already preparing the path that you can take. Focus on the things that you can control and let go of those situations that will only disappoint you. Surrender them to God and allow Him to take over. Let Him reveal to you the perfect thing that you can do. You will fail to value His wisdom if you keep on relying on your own understanding.

Turn your complaints into thanksgiving. Focus on the good things that are happening around you. Only then will you see the lessons behind the pain that God allowed you to experience. Thank Him for the blessings that you received. Recall those moments when He saved you from temptations. Set your eyes on His goodness and not on the temporary things that are happening around you. List down the miracles that you experienced in His presence, and you will realize how blessed and favored you are.

Open your heart and allow God to teach you. Be humble and acknowledge Him as the King of your life. There may be moments when you can’t understand His ways, but keep doing what is pleasing in His eyes. You won’t grow if you keep on focusing on the things that didn’t happen in your life. Deal with what’s in front of you and take every problem as an opportunity for you to grow. You will never be the same person after you face the storms. Your perspective will change for the better, and you will experience more of Him.
