So many students in my career have had a victim mindset. Others have an entitlement view of life while some have a curious work ethic, wanting to do and be their best. I have experienced all three in my own life, kicking the can down the road, wondering why things have to be this way. I’ve also thought I deserve more and better. But Gkd is convicting me of my sin, helping me see that my life is not about me. Rick Warren states in the beginning of ’The Purpose Driven Life’: “Life is not about you or me.”
“Sometimes the end God has in mind is to exercise our faith, so He brings us into straitened circumstances so that we might look up to Him and see His deliverance.” - Jerry Bridges, The Discipline of Grace
