Is the Heavenly Father Inadequate?

If you have placed your faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, then you are a child of God. A great transformation has taken place in your life and your life continues to be changed as the Lord works in you.

As we live this new life that we’ve been given in Christ, we are to bring honor to our Heavenly Father. Someone who complains all the time is not honoring the Father. A whiner distorts the picture of a child of God. When we grumble and dispute we imply that having God as my Father is somehow inadequate.

We need to remember the words of Lamentations 3:39 which says, “ Why should any living mortal, or any man, offer complaint in view of his sins?” We need to stop complaining about what we don’t have and be overwhelmed by the truth that God would make me His child, forgiving all my sin.
