Jesus Calling

October 9

You have been on a long, uphill journeyand your energy is almost spent. Thought you have faltered at times, you have not let go of My hand. I am pleased with your desire to stay close to Me. There is one thing however that displeases me:your tendency to complain.You may talk to Me as much as you like about the difficulty of the path we are following. I understand better than anyone else the stresses and strains that have afflicted you. You can ventilate safely to me, because talking with Me tempers your thoughts and helps you see things from My perspective.

Complaining to others is another matter altogether. It opens the door to deadly sins such as self pity and rage. Whenever you are tempted to grumble, come to Me and talk it out. As you open up to Me, I will put My thoughts in your mind and My song in your heart.
