Every time someone chooses to focus on a complaint or a negative, the blessings go unnoticed.
For every complaint, remind yourself of the blessings associated before speaking your complaint, taking it to social media, or allowing yourself to sit in with the frustration associated with your complaint.

“Wow, gas prices are high and they keep rising!”
1. I’m blessed that this price change effects me. I am able to have my own vehicle when many are not able to.
2. I am thankful that gas prices in my country aren’t as high as gas prices in other countries.
3. I’m thankful that I can continue to get gas, although expensive.
“The electric bill is higher this month.”
1. I’m blessed to be able to flip a switch and the lights turn on. Many are not able.
2. I’m blessed that running water is a normality in my life. Many do not have access.
3. I’m thankful that I am able to pay for my electric bill every month, when many are not able.

I challenge you to take a look around. Next time something doesn’t go according to your plan, take a minute to look at what God has blessed you with. This is all part of His plan. You may not know what’s happening next, but He does. Remember to thank Him, and don’t let the blessings go unnoticed.
