Oh, and by the way, I complain too much......

Seriously. I complain all the time. Maybe you notice, maybe you don't. But God certainly does! A lot of times I don't even realize that my thoughts are in the form of complaints. When I do realize it, I think, that's annoying. I complain too much. And there you have it, complaint 40 billion and one. I know God cares about it all, but I often wonder how else to formulate my thoughts (and even spoken stuff, too!).....

So here's a list I made for myself.......
1.) when I start thinking about something that I don't have...solution: count my blessings (classic)
2.) just general thankfulness applied in my life
3.) make the conscious decision to pray about whatever is bothering me...just thinking about it isn't solving anything
4.) READ MY BIBLE (wow! shocker! I know!) you'd be surprised how long it sometimes takes me to realize that's what I need in that moment
5.) listen to worship music
6.) go for a run
7.) just be quiet somewhere...just BE
