"Do everything without complaining and arguing." Philippians 2:14a Guys: There is a question that I am a bit hesitant to ask Diana because I am afraid her answer would be yes. My reluctant question is "Diana, do you think I complain too much?" The reason I am afraid she would say yes is there never seems to be a shortage of things for me to grumble about. Important things...
