Over-Indulging: Sense of Entitlement as a Root?

By Phyllis Tarbox

sense of entitlement

Could a sense of entitlement, rooted in self-pity, set up a reward system in your life that opens the door for over-eating, over-spending or over-“whatevering”?

I had a clear picture of that size differential one night driving home from an anointed teaching on spiritual warfare. As I got near home, a car pulled up next to me, and a man (who looked like Charles Manson!) leaned out of the rear window, and started screaming at me in what sounded like a foreign language. The first time it happened, I brushed it off as a chance encounter. The second time that he drove by and shouted, I could sense danger encroaching.  [Read more…]
