one step enough for me

life is hard. callings are hard, death is hard, unemployment is hard, relationships are hard, change is hard, there is just alot in life that is just not yielding to what we want. however...what in the world does complaining do? lamen and lemuel are probably the 2 biggest losers in all of the scriptures, well perhaps besides cane, and why? because they were whiners.
its virtually impossibly to never ever complain, or to feel sorry for yourself, but isn't is SUCH a wasted energy? pity parties are never necessary, and show such a lack of faith. we are never going to be able to see how it all works out, even what is going to happen tomorrow. we just need to have faith that it is all going to work out someday. maybe not tomorrow, or next week, or even in a few years, but eventually...it will all come together.
some of my favorite words to a hymn are "keep thou my feet, i do not ask to see the distant scene, one step enough for me." if we just focus on doing the best that we can right now, the Lord will take care of the rest. dont complain. just try a little harder to do a little better each day. :)
