What Are You Sending Out Into This World Today? Part 3

Hope you are having a great day no matter what time you are reading this. I no more than got started reading my devotional study/research and this statement hit me right between the eyes.

Complaining is the outward expression of discontent from within.

This really makes sense because this GIGO came to mind. "Garbage in, Garbage Out" but more or less reversed to GOGI "Garbage Out, Garbage In". If we are saying negative things and complaining, griping, etc. then of course, that is showing what we are feeling and thinking inside.  So more it goes to show us that those negative vibes and, complaining, whining, griping, etc. all goes to show that we are depressed, bitter, angry, jealous, do you want to add a few to this list?  Go ahead and add them in your comments.

Discontent- well, we cannot be totally surrendered to God and allowing God to do a work in our lives and knowing that He is in control if we are discontent, right? So all the more that we are not depending on God completely.  Where is that little grain of mustard seed sized faith?  Hmmmmm, what about that grain of sand size faith?

"You don't have enough faith," Jesus told them. "I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it would move. Nothing would be impossible."~~Matthew 17:20

This is awesome what we could do with that mustard seed sized faith, huh?  Well, it is evident that most of us do not have that faith because not many mountains are being moved, but on the other hand every day in our lives there is mountains that can be moved. We are not talking the mountains as we think in the Smokey Mountains or elsewhere.There are other mountains that we have to cross in our lives. For example, a mountain of addiction, a mountain of depression, a mountain of complaining, a mountain of nervous breakdown, a mountain of disease, a mountain of a wayward child, etc. We can still  move these mountains by letting God have control and allowing Him to do His work.  We have to be CONTENT inside and let God work!

"Not that I was ever in need, for I have learned how to be content with whatever I have." Philippians 4:11

All of this goes hand and hand .. oh my, that brought the song to my mind, "Hand in Hand with Jesus." Yes, as we walk hand in hand with Jesus and allow Him to guide us and know that He, like when we were little and were holding our mommy or daddy's or grandparents hands, how safe we felt then. And how they were there to guide us and keep us from harm's way. That is how we have to look at this endeavor of live. I'll leave this song with you for today. Have a blessed day.

Hand in Hand With Jesus

Once from my poor sin-sick soul
Christ did every burden roll
Now I walk redeemed and whole
Hand in hand with Jesus

Hand in hand we walk each day
Hand in hand along the way
Walking thus I cannot stray
Hand in hand with Jesus

In my night of dark despair
Jesus heard and answered prayer
Now I'm walking free as air
Hand in hand with Jesus

When the stars are backward rolled
And His home I shall behold
I will walk those streets of gold
Hand in hand with Jesus

From the straight and narrow way
Praise the Lord I cannot stray
For I'm walking every day
Hand in hand with Jesus
