My sister used to tell me that she thought I would argue with God! It always hurt my feelings that she would say such a thing.(She probably thinks she still knows me that well.) The awful part is that in my lifetime I actually have from time to time argued even with God. I guess we all want things our way, but when we become Christians we are suppose to want it our Father's way.
How many times have you said to your kids, 'Don't argue with me, just do what I tell you to do!"
I know I did. Guess what, our heavenly Father has given us the same instruction.
Philippians 2:14-16 (NIV) Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in the universe as you hold out the word of life - in order that I may boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor for nothing.
Let's put on the attitude God requires of us and remember that whatever we have to do today that we will do it as for the Lord without complaint or arguing!
Until He Comes or until I go,
Nikki
