Oh my goodness, no grumbling or disputing? How the world needs this admonition! It’s so easy to get caught up in complaining and/or arguing. We all have our opinions and we all want to make our opinions known..especially when are so certain the other person is wrong. But what does complaining or criticizing accomplish? It divides us. Yes the world wants to grumble and argue, but we’re called to something more constructive. We are to be LIGHT, illuminating the darkness with His love. In a noisy, selfish, critical world, show the peace and reason that comes from knowing Him. Shine, Christian, shine!
