Do
Everything
Without Complaining And Arguing

Why did the Apostle Paul have to say “Everything” … bummer!

Scripture

Philippians 2

¹⁴ Do everything without complaining and arguing, ¹⁵ so that no one can criticize you.

Observation

I like to complain sometimes, well maybe a lot of times about my aches and pains.

Kathy reminds me when she hears me come out with even a little complaint about my health that things could be a lot worse. She is so right.

What I experience on a daily basis is small potatoes compared to what other people are going through and what other people are struggling with and having to live with.

I am blessed. I am so blessed. God has been so good to me. I have no complaints.

How about you?

If we complain and argue it opens us up for criticism.

Application

 This week I will try really hard not to complain about the way I feel. (Except when I go see my heart doctor on Wednesday for a scheduled nuclear stress test)

Prayer

Heavenly Father, the Apostle Paul is amazing! To anyone that may be reading this I want to pray Paul’s prayer for them from Philippians 1: 9-11

 I pray that your love will overflow more and more, and that you will keep on growing in knowledge and understanding. 
  
For I want you to understand what really matters, so that you may live pure and blameless lives until the day of Christ’s return.  

May you always be filled with the fruit of your salvation—the righteous character produced in your life by Jesus Christ —for this will bring much glory and praise to God. Amen.
