Oh yes, I do whine to the Lord, and guess what happened !!!
Joel 2:13
" ...come back to the Lord your God."
MY WHINING TIME WITH THE LORD.
Anything BUT THAT Lord, anything at all!!! Can't you see Lord? I did not say anything yet that time because I was struggling to rearrange my face so that my irritation wouldn't show. I'll talk ,yes, I'll talk it out---eventually. But not now please, not now. I still am out of sorts, I am afraid I might blurt out hurting words!!! AND I sensed Jesus smile , not saying anything, just staying there with me in my quiet time, listening to my tirade , hearing out all my lamentations, impressing in me the JESUS way of meekness and humility.
Jesus patiently waited for me to argue myself blue in the face.It is when I ran out of justifications that He would gently woo me to do His bidding---TO BE THE FIRST TO MAKE PEACE--- TO STRIVE TO BE PLEASING TO THE EYES OF THE FATHER.
I loved this "whining"time with Jesus. He always made me feel safe to come back to HIM again and again --- to confer, to unload , to be pruned.
When was the last time you really, really talked to Jesus? Hurry now, hurry back HOME to HIM !!!
PRAYER: THANK YOU JESUS, YOU SHOWED ME
THE WAY BACK TO THE FATHER.

I was questioning Him, while listening to the TV partial results on our elections
here, why He seems to be allowing those "evil ones" in our midst to continue
flourishing their "might"... though of course this is still too early to tell!!!
