Recently, I came across a man who made a public lamentation on social media. He had met a widow with three young children and decided to be compassionate towards them. He rented a one-bedroom apartment for them and put the children in school. One day,
he visited another family who lived near her. When he was done, he decided to visit the widow and see how she was doing. His first shock was that the woman tried to seduce him. When he knocked at the door, she had just came out of the bathroom and was about to dress up. She asked the man to come in anyway. The man preferred to wait outside. When she was done, she asked the man why he refused to come in, probing if he did not find her attractive. Then she went on to throw the bombshell. She confronted the man that she heard that he rented a three-bedroom apartment for some other beneficiaries, and wondered why he thought she only deserved a one-bedroom
apartment.
“One thing about people with this attitude is that they never think anything you do for them is enough.”
Well, this is the case of a woman feeling entitled. I know children who feel their parents should always attend to their needs simply because they brought them into the world. I know women who destroyed their marriages because they felt entitled to all that their husbands have. One thing about people with this attitude is that they never think anything you do for them is enough. They also find it difficult to say ‘thank you” because they feel their benefactors are obligated to them anyway. Haman was a Bible example of a man who felt entitled. He lost his position as well as his life ultimately.
