On the contrary, we worked night and day, laboring and toiling so that we would not be a burden to any of you. 9 We did this, not because we do not have the right to such help, but in order to offer ourselves as a model for you to imitate. 10 For even when we were with you, we gave you this rule: “The one who is unwilling to work shall not eat.”" 2 Thes 3:7-10<br /><br />If you aren't contributing to the purchase of the milk for cereal, don't complain when there isn't any milk for YOUR cereal.<br /><br />If the initial investment was nothing, the amount of complaining rights alloted equals the initial investment, none. <br /><br />My thought, earn your complaining rights, contribute!! Even then, don't be the "cancer" that complains so much it ruin the energetic spirit of those working steadfast and with few complaints. <br /><br />Give to those giving to you. Willfully and with good spirit. <br /><br />It took me a minute, but I got it. <br /><br />Man, I'm gonna miss this. Guess I'll go back to the b'ginnin.... :-)alegriahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12870013149823055071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4341789093792368976.post-64448363671021415712011-02-02T19:50:11.334-08:002011-02-02T19:50:11.334-08:00Above post did not read right so to clarify- I lo...Above post did not read right so to clarify- I loved Ms. Paynes statement that starts with "the author of our own confusion".

However, we are the author of our own confusion by cooperating with dysfunction. Sometimes the best remedy is to disconnect for awhile, not for them but for yourself and in some instances both. <br /><br />BlessingsNicole Sharpley Paynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01844264525611049404noreply@blogger.com
