\u201cDoe alles zonder te klagen of te twisten.\u201d<\/em>
Filippenzen 2:14<\/em><\/strong><\/p>

Een van de gemakkelijkste dingen om te doen is klagen. Het vergt geen talent of speciale gave om anderen te bekritiseren. Toch kan \u00e9\u00e9n enkel woord van kritiek een aanzienlijke impact hebben op iedereen om ons heen. Dit was een andere les die de mensen in de tijd van Maleachi moesten leren. Hun klachten waren gericht tegen God. Ze vonden het nutteloos om de Heer te dienen \u2013 hun houding was in wezen: "Wat levert het mij op?" (Maleachi 3:13-15).<\/p>

Soms voelen we ons net zo. We vragen ons misschien af: "Waarom zouden we naar de kerk gaan? We horen steeds dezelfde boodschappen." Het is gemakkelijk om onze geestelijke leiders te bekritiseren, maar in plaats daarvan worden we opgeroepen om te bidden voor hen die de Heer heeft aangesteld om ons te leiden (Hebree\u00ebn 13:7, 17).<\/p>

De mensen klaagden er ook over dat de goddelozen voorspoedig waren, terwijl zijzelf leden. Ook wij kunnen van tijd tot tijd moe worden in het dienen van de Heer en ontmoedigd raken. Wanneer dat gebeurt, moeten we onze blik richten op het object van ons geloof: de Heer Jezus Christus. Hij is het ultieme voorbeeld van hoe een dienaar van God hoort te zijn. Als we ons op Hem richten, ontvangen we niet alleen kracht om met vreugde te dienen, maar worden we ook veranderd om meer op Hem te lijken.<\/p>

Maleachi geeft ons drie beschermingsmechanismen om te voorkomen dat we klagers worden. Ten eerste moet de vreze des Heren ons ertoe aanzetten Hem prioriteit te geven in ons leven \u2013 rekening te houden met Zijn gevoelens, Zijn rechten en Zijn glorie. Dat is wat het betekent om de Heer te vrezen. Een veelgehoorde vraag is tegenwoordig: "Wat zou Jezus doen?" Als die vraag meer zou worden dan een clich\u00e9, zou het ons werkelijk helpen om Hem met eerbied te bejegenen.<\/p>

Ten tweede worden we aangemoedigd om vaak met elkaar te praten. Christelijke gemeenschap is essentieel \u2013 om Christus met elkaar te delen en elkaar in Hem te bemoedigen. Als we vaker over Christus zouden praten, zouden we minder tijd hebben om te klagen en te bekritiseren.<\/p>

Ten derde worden we opgeroepen om over Zijn naam te mediteren. De naam van de Heer openbaart Zijn karakter, Zijn schoonheid en Zijn grootheid. De Heer Jezus is waarachtig, edel, rechtvaardig, puur, lieflijk en heeft een goede naam. Alleen in Hem vinden we ware deugd en alles wat lofwaardig is (Filippenzen 4:8).<\/p>

Ankerpunt voor vandaag:<\/strong>
Neem deze voorzorgsmaatregelen tegen klagen: geef de Heer de voornaamste plaats in je leven, moedig andere gelovigen aan en richt je gedachten op hemelse zaken.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
