Hi ReddSN,

I don't want to make it sound like I know it all or that I have it all together because the truth is, I am still learning and still growing. Anyways I wanted to share this with you to help you understand something important. The most important thing is that we all have to stop what we are doing sometimes to think and to remember our place before God. We have to remember that God is God, the creator of the universe and of us. In Jewish history, a servant can not complain for what the master does not give. He can only thank the master for what he has. Without the master, the servant would starve to death. That may sound unjust or unloving at first, but the truth is that we are all sinful and unworthy of God's love; yet, he still give it to us graciously.

Here is a great bible passage to explain this principle. Matt 20:1-16 “For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard. 2 He agreed to pay them a denarius for the day and sent them into his vineyard.
3 “About nine in the morning he went out and saw others standing in the marketplace doing nothing. 4 He told them, ‘You also go and work in my vineyard, and I will pay you whatever is right.’ 5 So they went. “He went out again about noon and about three in the afternoon and did the same thing. 6 About five in the afternoon he went out and found still others standing around. He asked them, ‘Why have you been standing here all day long doing nothing?’ 7 “‘Because no one has hired us,’ they answered. “He said to them, ‘You also go and work in my vineyard.’ 8 “When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman, ‘Call the workers and pay them their wages, beginning with the last ones hired and going on to the first.’ 9 “The workers who were hired about five in the afternoon came and each received a denarius. 10 So when those came who were hired first, they expected to receive more. But each one of them also received a denarius. 11 When they received it, they began to grumble against the landowner. 12 ‘These who were hired last worked only one hour,’ they said, ‘and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden of the work and the heat of the day.’13 “But he answered one of them, ‘I am not being unfair to you, friend. Didn’t you agree to work for a denarius? 14 Take your pay and go. I want to give the one who was hired last the same as I gave you. 15 Don’t I have the right to do what I want with my own money? Or are you envious because I am generous?’

Most people have the wrong intentions when it comes to believing in God. It breaks God's heart when we only believe in him for the things he gives us; the truth is, all he really want is a relationship with us. If you think about it, all the great fathers of faith in the bible and today are those that believe regardless of economical status or situation. When we understand that, it will help us in our journey to be a mature believer that walks by faith and not by sight. Hope that helps. =)
