Admiration and Respect
According to research, it doesn’t look like we can get away from the tendency to compare ourselves to others. It looks like something that happens to us, rather than a choice we make. What we do know is that we have a choice regarding what we do once we realise that we are busy comparing.
The more we accept the diversity of gifts and life’s inequality as a given, the more we can move towards a place of admiration and respect.
Admiration and respect can also be called worship. It’s what happens to us when we see and realize who He is. We feel small, humble and drawn to coming closer and making a connection.
Exercise:
Look at someone close to you today with admiration and respect. What about them is true, lovely, noble and pure?
Thank Jesus for what He has given them and tell them what you admire about them.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, I ask for the grace of a life free from comparison. In the sweet Name of Jesus, Amen.

This Lent plan invites you to face that which you so easily avoid - your humanity, your brokenness, your sadness and disappointments. For the next 40 days, we will embark on an adventure filled with some alone time, prayer and fasting. Each day will provide a scripture, a guide, an exercise and a grace prayer which you can pray throughout your day.
