Sunday Testimony: I Won’t Complain

Right now there are things going on in my life that I could gripe on forever and a day. My family is really hurting financially, but I also know that it is a matter of a mind set change that can change that issue. So as I was thinking on things I thought about an article I read in December issue of the WC Mini-Mag by Kelly McCausey and then I remembered a gospel song that I used to love sing when I was going through.

It reminded me of all my blessings and the reasons why I Won’t Complain. I may be having a financial set back and the devil might be on my heels, but, like that song says, when I look around and think things over….I Won’t Complain.

I Won’t Complain

by Paul Jones

 

I’ve had some good days
I’ve had some hills to climb
I’ve had some weary days
And some sleepless nights

But when I look around
And I think things over
All of my good days
Outweigh my bad days
I won’t complain

 

 

Sometimes the clouds are low
I can hardly see the road
I ask a question, Lord
Lord, why so much pain?
But he knows what’s best for me
Although my weary eyes
They can’t see
So I’ll just say thank you Lord
I won’t complain

The Lord
Has been so good to me
He’s been good to me
More than this old world or you could ever be
He’s been so good
To me

 

He dried all of my tears away
Turned my midnights into day
So I’ll just say thank you Lord
I’ve been lied on
But thank you Lord
I’ve been talked about
But thank you Lord
I’ve been misunderstood
But thank you Lord
You might be sick
Body racking with pain
But thank you Lord
The bills are due
Don’t know where the money coming from
But thank you Lord

Thank you Lord (2x)
I want, I want to thank God

Has been so good to me
He’s been good to me
More than this old world or you could ever be
He’s been so good (3x)
So good (4x)

To me
He dried all of my tears away
Turned my midnight into day

And I know this too shall pass because my God supplies all my needs according to His riches in glory. That’s just how good God is!
