Grateful Not Entitled

You can’t be grateful for something that you feel entitled to. I think it’s important to step back and ask yourself, What are the things I feel entitled to in my life?

Do you feel entitled to…

…your house?

…your kids?

…your job?

…your car?

We all tend to think that we’ll be grateful when we receive things to be grateful for; if God will just give us what we want, THEN we’ll be grateful. But the reality is that gratitude begins when your sense of entitlement ends.

As you go about your day today, I’d challenge you to think of a few things you’re grateful for and see how it changes your attitude and perspective on things.
