Each one should test their own actions. Then they can take pride in themselves alone, without comparing themselves to someone else

Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.

But let each one test his own work, and then his reason to boast will be in himself alone and not in his neighbor.

But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.

For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption; but he that soweth to the Spirit shall of the Spirit reap life everlasting.

But let each one examine his own work, and then he will have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.

For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.

Make a careful exploration of who you are and the work you have been given, and then sink yourself into that. Don’t be impressed with yourself. Don’t compare yourself with others. Each of you must take responsibility for doing the creative best you can with your own life.

Don’t be misled: No one makes a fool of God. What a person plants, he will harvest. The person who plants selfishness, ignoring the needs of others—ignoring God!—harvests a crop of weeds. All he’ll have to show for his life is weeds! But the one who plants in response to God, letting God’s Spirit do the growth work in him, harvests a crop of real life, eternal life.

But each one must examine his own work, and then he will have reason for boasting, but to himself alone, and not to another.
