Don't Complain!

  

Here's my desk and environs

early this morning,

taken after I finished coloring Moses in my journal.

 

  

And here is Moses.

In the book of Numbers in the bible,

the Israelites were complaining about their situation,

and God sent fiery serpents against them.

Obviously, COMPLAINING is a great sin!

It's really ungratefulness.

But immediately when the people repented,

God instructed Moses to set a serpent on a standard

so that whoever gets bitten and looks at it,

he shall live and not die.

So too we, when we look at 

Jesus on the cross,

and believe in Him,

we have everlasting life!

May we ALWAYS be grateful for God's gifts,

and not complain!

 

Last Saturday, I led a Creativity Workshop

for a priest from Myanmar,

missionary sisters from Sri Lanka, Korea,

Indonesia and the Philippines.

 

I reminded them of what happened in Genesis.

After God created the earth, the animals, 

etc., He said, "It is very good!"

He gave this gift of creativity to man

because He enjoyed Himself sooo much.

 

During the sharing afterwards,

they said they were so happy!

They shared in our Father's joy

of creativity!
