"Do everything without grumbling or arguing ..."

- Philippians 2:14

After an intense conversation about our work and God's work, Paul turns his attention to our attitudes and our words.

Grumbling and arguing reveal what's really going on inside of us. They're red flags, warning lights. They reveal that our process of working out our salvation is going astray. Something has hijacked our working our of our salvation.

Here are four things we've identified that hijack our working out our salvation and produce grumbling and arguing:

• Prioritizing being precise over being loving
• Refusing to reconcile with people who've wronged us
• Making ourselves the center of God's big story
• Attempting to withold corners of our lives from God's saving work

Think about reasons you grumble and argue.

How do grumbling and arguing get in the way of God's work in your life?

What can you replace grumbling and arguing with in your life?
