when we complain

when we complain

we put us in the center

we deny the provision

the blessings of our God

when we complain

we are like the people

grumbling in the desert

denying the gifts of God

when we complain

we give in to worry

our anxieties and exhaustion

sap our faith in God

when we complain

God still provides for us

a way through the desert

back to God’s arms
