When we give in to whining, murmuring,and complaining, we embark on a destructiveslide that can take us down to depths we nevercould have imagined going. Truly, ingratitude is ourfirst step away from God.

neither were thankful;
but became vain in their imaginations,
and their foolish heart was darkened.
Romans 1:21
