We had a mix-up on the first release, here is the right version.Gratitude is something people talk about, but putting it into practice is difficult. Plus, many people talk about it in a “touchy-feely” way, which throws us off as men. The reality of gratitude is something we need in our lives if we want to thrive.In this week’s show, we discuss gratitude, what it is, and some of the pitfalls that keep us from developing a grateful attitude in our lives.Gratitude is cultivating an awareness of realityPsalm 104 God sustains all aspects of creationWe get used to things and expect them to stay the sameGratitude is a mentality that comes with practice - new neuro pathways in the brainGratitude is a choice of where we put our mindPitfalls that Hinder Our Awareness of RealityEntitlementWhen things are going good, we get used to it, and when things go bad, we notice it.Things “should be good” God Owes MeBiblical view: the only reason the world doesn’t fall apart right now is because God is holding back the chaos.The natural setting of this world isn’t life, but death.
