What do you want? Many of My children do not know what they want. Sometimes, it could appear that what many want most of all is to complain. It seems to Me that there is a lot of complaining going on, could this be true?
You are presented with a meal that those who haven’t eaten today do not even have a chance to complain about, and you find sundries to complain about. Have another ambition rather than to be a super complainer. Goodness knows, you are awfully good at griping about one thing or another. You may be a magnificent complainer. There is hardly pride to take in being a complainer. You have lots of competition for the championship.
To be proud of your complaining skills is like being proud of having a sour stomach. Burp, burp, burp. What are you proud of? Your discernment? Best fault-finder on the block? Excellent at finding that which to complain about every day of the week?
You can accomplish a lot more by biting your tongue. Tonight’s supper was not gourmet? So? Someone went to trouble. Thank Me, God, then for your food.
Complaints are sloppy things. I know you can do better with your life. Sometimes a little thank-you goes far. Give good cheer.
You could get good at making someone smile.
You could try cooking supper one night. Get good at making someone want to cook for you. Be a splendid guest. When someone makes a meal for you, consider yourself a guest. Pull out your good manners. Try them on. I encourage you to be explicit in your appreciation.
I say, if you can say something undesirable, then you can say something desirable. Get practice in it.
We are talking about more than uplifting your wife or mother or the clerk in the super market. We are talking about resurrecting the world. Call being genial the way to resurrect the world. Hey, if you simply stopped complaining, you would be doing an unheralded service to the world.
If you don’t like the service you receive in the world, improve the service that you give to the world.
Because the service you receive isn’t what you think it should be, then show the world how.
Here's how to change the world in one easy lesson:
Don’t try to change the world. Don’t try to change anyone else. You have your hands full with yourself. Change even your posture. Start blessing the world even with your posture.
At the very least, exchange your complaints for a closed mouth. You can offer a smile. If you can offer a smile, you can be cheery. If you can be cheery, you can enjoy. If you can enjoy, you can laugh. If you can laugh, you can be alive. If you can be alive, you can be a blessing to the Earth at large and most especially to the people you know.
When you are a blessing, you are able to appreciate others at an amazing rate.
You can be an alacrity of joy. You can be a trail-blazer. You can be a house a-fire of love. You can light fires in other hearts.
Are you perhaps waiting for someone else to start? Why wait?
Be a star in the firmament. Be a star. Be the majorette. Be the baton-twirler. Start a parade on Earth as you spread the Light of Love.
You will see negativity recede faster than your hairline.
If I, God, wore a cap, you would be the Feather in My Cap. What else would you be? What more do you want?
Beloveds, shake out love. Shake it out all over. Start the dawn of a new age on Earth. See what you can start.
