Pick up your Head
We have many things to thank the Lord for! When I am elsewhere, I hear people complaining because of the things they do not have or because of the things they worry about and always put on a gloomy face instead of a problem-solving face. Why don't you think about how to fix things instead of cursing and screaming because of a minor (or major) inconvenience or issue. All cursing and screaming would do is make you blind to God's blessings and only see the inconveniences. Do not think that just because you have faith in God and that he is good that you will not have any problems or temptations. Because if he never gave us any of these to persist and have faith through, what would our faith be? What would our work ethic be? If God gave you a perfect life, he would be wronging you by carrying you on a pillow for your life (like some otha mothas) and you would be as soft as a vanilla bean. But no, God is a truly good God, not a generous grandparent although he does generously give His blessings to people. But do they see them? But many people live with their eyes shut and freak out when any problems come. Why don't you try to find solutions instead of confusion? Because you have a lazy mind who does not want to solve problems? A mind full of negative thoughts cannot solve any problems, think of what you already have, to be thankful, what don't you have? Do you just not need them? Is it because of something you are doing? God is like a father who is trying to teach and give guidance to his children. But many of them would rather give heed to their other parent at another house because there they have no responsibilities and get to play games all day. What will they become then? A sloth? A thief? A garbage collector? Or all of them? Like a good father, he blesses and takes care of his children accordingly and does not abandon them when they make mistakes. But He wants to raise strong children who care and who have morals like Him, and He has not given up on you yet, so get up, brush your pants and bring your mindset to a change, think what do I have to be thankful for instead of why does my life suck? Think where are my problems, how can I fix them, instead of what can I get/take? Think how can I get better? How can I show God my love and thankfulness? Because He has not given up on you yet. -- Written by Vikenait Productions
