If you haven't picked it already, my heading is a quote from a popular tv show we like to call "Family Guy". Peter Griffin, a Family Guy who doesn't really think before he speaks at the best of times and has unrealistic expectations about life and of others, is asked to be part of a television segment where he rants on about things that annoy him most.
You know what? Us, as humans, we like complaining a lot. haha
We talk about WHO or WHAT annoys us the most. In fact we spend so much time dwelling, or maybe analysing these things sometimes... we forget what annoyed us in the first place!
I wonder what annoys GOD most... the fact we complain so much? or that we spend our time on focusing on other things (that "annoy us so much") instead of praising Him?
One thing I know must annoy God about me, is when I'm spiritually lazy. I forget what my purpose is (esp when I'm out and about) and I forget about just talking to God and maybe reading His word, I lose my passion.. if only for a brief moment. I know it definately annoys me!
There's a couple of directions I could head with this blog.... But I really feel the need to speak more about complaining...
The bible talks about becoming dead to yourself when you decide to follow Jesus. What if that meant forgetting about our earthly problems? What if it meant to stop dwelling on the things of earth that annoy us so much and start dwelling on our Eternal life?
Imagine a world like that... I think a lot of counsellors/psychologists would probably go out of business!!
