How 2B Miserable- Lesson 5: Complain About Your Blessings

“I complained because I had no shoes until I saw a man who had no feet.” - A sign in a shoe repair shop

Miserable people complain about everything including their blessings.  If their car breaks down, they complain that it isn’t new.  If their waitress is slow, they complain and withhold a tip. 

If prophets warn them against the dangerous media, they say,

“ They can’t tell me what movies to see!” 

They’re like the ancient Israelites who got free food from heaven and said,

“What? Manna again?”

By contrast, happy people are grateful to have a car, thankful they can afford to eat at a restaurant (even is service is slow), and prone to sing songs like “We Thank Thee, O God For A Prophet.” ( What good is having a prophet if we don’t follow him?)

The righteous rejoice while the miserable murmur.

 Lesson 1, Lesson 2, Lesson 3, Lesson 4

Hope this helps!
