Let's not grumble about the rain, lets not complain about the cold, let's not grumble about taxes, lets not complain about hospital treatment, let's not complain about not being able to afford the latest gadgets and gizmos, let's not grumble about our homes, let's not complain that some food prices are going up.
Rather, let's be thankful for what we have been blessed with. Can you imagine what the look on a starving African child's face would be if they could see us grumbling about our easy, luxurious lives?
Let's not take anything for granted, and let's just be thankful to God for all that we have. God sees.
