GOD'S PROMISES - COMPLAINING

It is normal to complain about the things we don't like and the things that aggravate us in our life especially when it comes to our job.

"Your boss gets on your nerves. Your customers are driving you crazy. Your coworkers are doing things for attention that don't make sense. Some of the rules and regulations just seem ridiculous."

These are all things that understandably make us complain. Just make sure your complaining does not turn into ungratefulness and murmurings that will be displeasing to God. 

Keep in mind that God allowed you to have a job to go to everyday so that you can have income to pay your bills and live your life. 

Even though you may not be happy with some of the things that may happen at your job make sure that you always thank God for allowing you to have a job.

Pray and ask God to help show you how to deal with those nuances that you are constantly complaining about and to not let them steal your job and the blessings that God has provided.
