#118 - Could Your Sense of Entitlement Be Causing Discontentment in Your Marriage? Two Strategies to Overcome Entitlement Mentality as a Christian Wife


Listen Later

“I try so hard to work on communicating better with my husband. I don’t understand why I still can’t manage to have a happy marriage.”


“I deserve to have a good marriage, so why am I struggling with loving my husband? After all, isn’t this marriage  a blessing from God?”


“I’m tired of being the one making an effort. I’ve tried so hard to do what the Bible says, so why hasn’t God  made my marriage easier?”


“I just did all the laundry, put groceries away, cooked dinner, and kept the kids alive. Don’t I deserve to take a break?”


You don’t sound very happy, Linda. You sound disappointed in your marriage, with your husband, and even with God. I’m right, aren’t I? You’re starting to get uncomfortable, aren’t you?

I see you… cuz I’ve been you, and I get it. We think we deserve some things from our husbands, and even from God. We should get a certain outcome for our hard work.

Y’all. I’ma tell you why you might be feeling this way today’s episode, but, Linda, listen. I’m saying this with the same tough love I needed and still need sometimes:

Girl, you've an attitude problem (and so do I). We’re gonna dive deep today into something we don’t like to admit and may not want others to know about us as wives sometimes. Let’s check our pride at the door and talk about it.


Loads of Love, Lydia
