The Grumbler

All contentious people have their own beliefs,
this anger and discord is very seldom brief.

God in all his glory, loves our gratefulness.
It's growlers, whiners and faultfinders,
that make this world a mess.

Quit wasting time and pay attention to the man upstairs.
For spending time with the Lord, nothing else compares.

Don't be a Grumbler, life's to short to waste it in distress.
Live, love and laugh. Let God in all his glory, take care of all the rest.

I couldn't agree with you more, Wayne. God loves us whether we think so or not but like you, I believe He appreciates it when we thank Him for the things He has blessed us with...which are many. Great read, this late evening-tide.
