Being told repeatedly about something good that was done for you doesn’t make it any less significant. Let go of the spirit of entitlement or the discomfort of being reminded of someone’s kindness.
They are allowed to sing it all they want. When GOD reminds you of a single act, it doesn’t mean HE hasn’t done more. HE may choose to use one example to constantly remind you of His faithfulness.
At a point, familiarity began to dull the sharp edges of ‘I am the LORD your GOD, who brought you out of Egypt.’ Whenever I read the Bible, it was more of me grumbling at how often the Israelites were reminded. The profound truth of CHRIST’s sacrifice, meant to ignite my soul, was sadly beginning to lose its fire. I knew it, yes, but knowledge alone wasn’t enough to combat the creeping tide of complacency.
It wasn’t a conscious rebellion, but a subtle, insidious shift. I knew Christ’s sacrifice was the cornerstone of my faith, yet the constant repetition began to feel…routine.
Then, one day, it hit me. This wasn’t about the number of times I heard the message; it was about the state of my heart. I had allowed the sheer magnitude of the act to be overshadowed by the frequency of the reminder. I had let entitlement creep in, a silent thief stealing the joy of genuine gratitude.
Darling, this is your reminder to acknowledge every act of kindness shown to you. No matter how often someone repeats it, they are simply passionate about it.
So, the next time you hear a familiar message of love or sacrifice, don’t let your ears glaze over. Instead, open your heart. Listen with fresh ears. Engage with the truth. And let gratitude wash over you, a reminder that even the most familiar stories can hold the most profound revelations.
Gratitude does not expire!
✨ Gratitude isn’t just about remembering—it’s about truly appreciating, every single time. So, let us choose to see each reminder as a new opportunity to express our thankfulness. ✨
With gracious smiles,
