Pod #82: How To Be Grateful And Still Want More

I don't know where this thought process starts, most likely in ones childhood when the frustration of a mother who sees ungrateful children wanting more and more finally snaps and produces an epic lecture on how greedy children are and that they should just be grateful for what they have and not want more.

I have to agree with that mother, and honestly I have been that mother, that all humans - especially children - need more gratitude in their lives. But where I've always gotten it wrong is that I shouldn't want for more. But what if gratitude and wanting more are actually two principles that go hand in hand? What if you are suppose to be grateful AND want more almost in the same breath?

Come listen to today's podcast where I talk about how God Himself has taught us this principle through an act we do everyday. It's one I hope to implement more not only in my own life, but teach to my children as well.

Enjoy!
