“Do all things without grumbling or disputing, that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and twisted generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world” Philippians 2:14-15 -> me: Another very impactful passage for me today during my quiet time. ‘Do ALL things without grumbling or disputing’ strikes right at the heart of my struggles this week. This, is in fact, exactly what I have been doing lately in regards to some answers to prayer I have been petitioning God about. How am I supposed to be blameless and innocent of hypocrisy if I am not trusting and in active application of my faith? What is crazy is that God has come through in spite of my grumbling. Why is He so good to me when I am such rambunctious child of His? I need to stay focused on what it means to be a shining light in light in the darkness for my Lord and Savior. I have been rescued from this ‘crooked and twisted generation’, I need to act like it. Lord God forgive me of my grumbling and discontentment. Help me to stay strong in the peace and comfort you provide. Help me to understand with wisdom the right decisions to make when faced with a direction to choose. You Oh Lord are a Faithful and Resolute God; full of mercy and grace. Who am I to question you?
