We Whine To Much

"We have to make up our minds to bear the cross without ceasing and as far as possible without whimpering." AW Tozer

I read this quote this morning and was reminded how much I whine. If things are not going my way or I don't get what I want. I whine like a little two year old. I look at the Life of Joseph , what an example he was. Life was pretty bad for a long time and yet he was faithful to God. I strive and I hope you do as well to be like that, in times of troubles we need to lean on God. Instead to often I complain to him. Scriptures says the path is narrow and hard at times, how easily I forget that. The next time you or I are whining to God, take a moment and think about what you are saying. Remember Joseph and remind yourself it could always be much worse.

So True

"The Bible is not a once-spoken book-it is a book that is NOW speaking." AW Tozer

Once again i heard today that the Bible is not God's word, but man's adaption to get what he wants. The person I was talking to said there is a God, but does not care what we do. We are failing this culture to teach them who God is and what his Word means to our Life. Pass along today the importance of God and his word.
