Comparing vs. Complaining

Read:  Psalm 26 / Proverbs 8 / Numbers 11 / Philippians 1

 

Psalm 26:8 LORD, I have loved the habitation of thy house, and the place where thine honor dwelleth.

Proverbs 8:11 For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.

Numbers 11:18 Ye have wept… saying, Who shall give us flesh to eat? for it was well with us in Egypt.

Philippians 1:21 For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.

 

How lovely is the habitation

Where Christ’s great honor is declared.

Beholding Christ and His salvation,

Who else to Him can be compared?

 

When Egypt’s captives were set free,

They soon forgot and would complain.

Let us remember gratefully:

To live is Christ; to die is gain.
