Sometimes, we people tend to complain and complain about things and tasks that has been assigned to us. Often times we blame somebody or someone for that matter. But looking at it again, are we complaining about things that are right to be complained? I tell you, the blessing is there… really… you just have to clear your eyes to see it.. ^^,.
Tonight, me and my officemates and boss spent couple of hours overtime in the office. I think it was about 10pm that we got out of the office. We often get out of at 6pm or 5:30pm, bacause it is our schedule. We have been getting a lot of projects, left and right, prospects, up and down, but we have little manpower, that is why we have to make overtime to finish things until our deadline.
Just tonight, again continuing, I noticed myself compalining about super long hours. My house is in cavite and I was worried of the danger and super late time that I would arrive at home. I complained and complained and complained. But at the end of the day, I saw myself do what I did not really want to do, to be a negative person and to be a worried person. Then all the things that happened flashed in front of me like a star wars movie, the projects, the free-food, the light and happy ambiance of the office, a God-fearing boss.. wow.. I diligently prayed and apologized to God what I did. And from that time tonight until now, I am still energetic and eager for tomorrow’s challenges ahead of me..
To point it out, I had all things made in front of me. I mean the blessing of God. All the blessings were given and placed into my pocket but I fail to appreciate those things, even little things. I lately see negative things on people rather than positive things, and that is WRONG. At the end of the day, I asked myself, ‘What is much better, to have lots of projects or to have none at all?’. Then I smiled.. ^^,.
All things happen for a good reason, so do not even worry about a single thing in your life. Do you believe that all things were given to us by God? Even little challenges and tasks were given to us by God. You know why? Because He knows we CAN DO IT. In addition to that, God gave us challenges not for us to be a complain-smart-ass person but for us to be a better person. God blessed us with many people, things, and even gadgetries for us to make our tasks perfect than perfect. It is just up to us to see those things as blessings and challenges as opportunities that would make us a better person.. no.. the BEST person and the BEST VESSEL GOD COULD EVER HAVE.
1 Timothy 4:4 Everything that God has created is good; nothing is to be rejected, but everything is to be received with a prayer of thanks
Good Evening!! God Bless!!
