Whatever your challenge is today, the way out is not by complaining. Remember to praise Him in the midst of your trials, that you may be exalted in due time.
If you spend your day complaining about EVERYTHING, might not the answering of your prayers just give you one more thing to complain about?
Says Joyce Meyer in her book Battlefield of the Mind, “Patience is not your ability to wait, but your ability to keep a good attitude while you wait.”
You may be placed in situations today that challenge you and stretch the limits of your patience. Your way out is not to complain or be haughty, stomp your feet or mumble under your breath, take someone to task at the bank, grocery store, or over the phone, or make those loud breathy sounds in a public place so that everyone knows you are upset. Quite the contrary, these situations are to be endured with grace, kindness and good temper. Thank Him now as you have been given an opportunity to grow and learn patience.
I am 100% When . . .I exhibit behavior that pleases God in stressful situations.
What is your 100% When?
