Gratitude

Good morning all. I hope you had a good week. We touched on Nationalism last week. I LOVE our country. Today I want to hit on something that I think really hurts it and all of us. Entitlement! Def: the belief that one is deserving of.... This is everywhere... I'm not going to go down a political rabbit hole but instead focus on each of us! I listened to a great podcast this week which got me thinking about it. There was a quote that really made me think. "Gratitude is the Key to warding off Entitlement" I hadn't thought about that but they really are opposites. As individuals how are we really Owed or Deserve Anything!... In my eyes we Don't. Work Hard, Live Right and Love Many! The act of gratitude can help us all. Gratitude is possibly the most important key to finding success and Happiness. Knowing and acknowledging what we appreciate let's is know who we are. Paying attention to these things puts us in a positive spot and lets us grow. Think on that this week. Be Thankful for what you Have. This can really fight the spector of Entitlement. Have a Great Week. Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. — 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever. — 1 Chronicles 16:34 But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” James4:6
