For You Page Week 8 - Comparison
from Journey Church Sermons Hosted by Journey Church
Comparison is one of the most subtle and destructive forces working against our faith. It begins the moment we take our eyes off Jesus and fix them on someone else, and it always produces one of two responses: envy or pride. Both distort our identity, diminish our gratitude, and derail the unique race God has set before us. Just as Jesus reminded Peter, God's plan for someone else is not our concern. We are each called to faithfully run the race marked out for us. The antidote to comparison is not self-improvement but fixing our eyes on Christ. Gratitude and intentional celebration of others are two of the most powerful ways to break comparison's grip. God is far too good an author to ask you to live someone else's story.
