Grumblers – Charles H Spurgeon

A heavy waggon was being dragged along a country lane by a team of oxen. The axle-trees groaned and creaked terribly, when the oxen turning round, thus addressed the wheels:: ‘Halloa, there! why do you make so much noise? we bear all the labor, and we, not you, ought to cry out!’ Those complain first in our churches who have least to do. The gift of grumbling is largely dispensed among those who have no other talents, or who keep what they have wrapped up in a napkin.
