A Complaining Moment

It's not that I mind paying taxes...

....I just wish that my tax return would auto-file.

I don't like paperwork.

I don't like math.

And I don't like record keeping.

Why am I so much more likely to complain about the things I don't like than express gratefulness for the things I enjoy?

God commands me to "give thanks in all things," but half the time, I don't even bother to "give thanks" for pleasant things.

I wonder how often ungratefulness sullies my witness for Christ in the world?
