paul based the gospel off of a complaint response, hab 2.:thumbsup:
Paul's letter to the Corinthians ( I ) is a huge parcel of complaints , isn't it ?

And , his letters to Rome and Galatia deal much with his same complaint concerning the Law to the Gentiles .

just thinkin'....."complaints" i think, are sometimes mis-construed as "grumbling" and "attacking" like the Israelites with Moses, who had temper tantrums about not liking the manna, etc.

The "complaints" that David and others brought to our Abba were from the depths of their hearts, souls, and minds, that needed to be expressed. Who ELSE did they have? Who ELSE do we have. They were burdened. They "lamented" to the Lord. They were suffering. God NEVER admonished us to be "stoic". THat's a lie from the pit of the enemy's abode. The enemy will do ANYTHING to keep us from continually going to the Lord about everything. Why is that? It's because he knows that's where we get our strength, restoration, healing, love, and "hugs" from. Yes, hugs.

John, was called the disciple Jesus loved. Was that possibly because John had no trouble at all laying his weary head on Jesus' chest?

Sometimes we need to just crawl up on our Abba's lap and lay our lamenting, weary heads on His chest and STAY there for a while.
Ah ... someone who understands . I was going to write a post on this . However , people think that a complaint is a complaint is a complaint .

You are supposed to look like you are in a complaining mood ( dour ) but not act like it . Tricky .
