Road Blocks: moving forward (Pt 8)

COMPARISON // CONTENTMENT Definition: a consideration or estimate of the similarities or dissimilarities between two things or people. “One of the biggest problems with comparisons is that we allow other people to define our values.” - Rachel Cruze Galatians 6:4-5 Death → Life Romans 6:23 Condemnation → Pardon Romans 8:1-2 Galatians 4:4-7 Philippians 1:6 "I am not who I ought to be. But thank God I am not who I once was." Contentment: a state of happiness and satisfaction. Peace of Mind Philippians 4:11-12 From Comparison to Contentment Be yourself Let go of the past Find joy in your life Be OK with other people living a good life Recognize the good things all around you Thank God for who He made you to be S.T.O.P. Set aside jealousy, covetousness and greed Think about what God has given to you Only compare yourself to the person in the mirror and who they were yesterday Purpose to be content
