Be appreciative. You don't have to complain always.
I was going out this morning when I saw a man leading a blind woman by the ant I began to think of my own situation and I was grateful to God for where I am.
Moving further, I saw a group of people who had no place of abode and we're usually fed by good Samaritans. Sometimes ago, there was this video online. The video is about a couple who were going to a particular destination in their private car. As the husband was driving, the wife complained that she was tired of their car. The husband supported her too.
The scene moved to a young man who had been trekking a very long distance. He was thinking that if only he had a car it would have been easier. He continued trekking to go home and sleep. At least he had a bed and a roof over his head.
The third scene showed a young man who was about to sleep on the streets. He wished he had a roof over his head.
The fourth scene showed a patient in the hospital on a wheelchair. This patient wished she could stand up and walk again. Even if she doesn't have a roof over her head, she didn't care.
The next scene was still in the hospital. A blind man named Mr Audu, asking the doctor when he will see again. The doctor replied and said, "Thank God for your life sir. The patient beside your bed just passed away". The old man then said "God I thank you for life".
The patient on the wheelchair saw Mr Audu and began to thank God that you he had a good sight.
The boy on the street also realised that some people could not work but he could walk. He was grateful to God and believed that God will give him a roof over his head.
The young man reasoned that some people don't even have a home to go to but he has one. He was also greatful.
The couple in the car also saw the young man who was trekking and sweating. The husband then said they needed to be grateful to God at least they have a car.
Take a good look at yourself. Although some people are better in status than you, aren't you better than some people? If I should begin to count the things that God has done for me in this year alone, I won't finish. We need to think more on what God has done for us. It is better to praise than to complain because when praises ascend, miracles descend. No matter your situation, don't always complain. Be grateful for the little you have because you are better off than some people.
Always think that in terms of skills, there'll be always someone better than you, that'll make you humble. At the same time, always think that there are people less fortunate than you, that'll make you grateful with all the things you have, even the simplest one 😌
