Remember that person

A few minutes while we were glued on the TV watching the prime time news, the survivor series to be precise on KTN we were drown into a conversation that was very emotional but at the same a reality check.
For those who saw the ordeal of the women suffering from the condition of fistula must agree with me that it is an urgly chapter that should never happen to anyone. In the quest for children n raising of families, these women find themselves in a world of isolation n shame that cannot be measured. In our conversation my friend opens up on what most women undergo especially those affected with fibroid n fitsula.
Hey man, people a suffer. God's people are suffering. Some tears are not worthy holding back regardless of whether the victim is a loved one or a stranger. It is so sad that some conditions happen to our sisters.
This reminds me one of the Sundays while we were listening to testimonies in my church, a young lady confessed of being haunted by a strange phenomena. After her long calls, a red element, probably part of her lower intestines could come out and hung around. Imagine each time you go for long calls, your intestine come calling, how sad, how dreadful, how urgly, how sorrowful. But our God is faithful, she received her healing even without any medical operations.
Now you the reader, maybe you are there complaining on how God has not answered your prayers or how he hasn't given you your dream job like your contemporary. You complain about why you were born short, slim or black. Remember this, out there there's an adult who still uses Pampers on a daily basis. There's a woman whose flow of blood since her first menstruation, has never stopped. There's another whose uterus has already been removed citing health issues. Remember there's a man who cannot have kids. Remember there's a woman whose every pregnancy result into a miscarriage.
Remember that street family in the cold of Nairobi with an infant in their custody. Remember the street children who are eating from the dungeons of dandora damp site. Remember that very bright classmate of yours whose intelligence was thrown out of the window citing lack of fees.
Has God not been gracious enough to you. To the children of Israel in the wilderness, while he gave them manna from heaven, they still complained. Give thanks for the little you have. Look at Jesus, in his ministry, before anything, he thanked the father. And God listened. Give thanks for the little you have, complaining is equivalent to disobedience, both of which the lord hates.
