"I Deserve it!"
I believe these are the three most dangerous words in the English language. We have become a generation crippled by entitlement. We cling to our rights but shy away from our responsibilities. We fight for our comfort often at the expense of others’ basic necessities. Our Founding Fathers accidentally set the wheels of selfishness in motion with their revolutionary spirit and Bill of Rights. For our new generation, maybe we should revolt against self-focused complacency and draft a Bill of Responsibilities to shift our focus from selfish demands to our selfless duty. We should all be thankful to live in a nation that affords us the freedom to serve a God who offers us grace instead of the punishment we all truly “deserve”.
