Grateful or Entitled?

Remember, with Thanksgiving on Thursday, there will be no Thursday night service this weekend. However, we’ll see you on Sunday at 8, 9:30 or 11:00am. (If you can go to the 8:00am service…please do!)

A Grateful Heart vs an Entitled Heart…

Let me start with this: Which person would you rather be hanging out with??? I’m sure it’s the one with the grateful heart. And yet, our culture keeps telling us “YOU DESERVE THIS.” Maybe we worked hard and deserve a break, but usually that YOU DESERVE thing just feeds into our entitlement mentality way too easily.

Today spend some time throughout your day noticing God’s blessings in your life and be grateful. Share your grateful moments with others. Let them also know why you’re grateful for them.

Yes, tomorrow is set aside for that kind of thinking, but why wait till then. Let’s be grateful every day!

“Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.” (James 1:17 NIV)
