Comparison

To compare is to try to fit in and stand out, all at the same time. It can lead to admiration and respect, but more often it leads to envy, jealousy and happiness about another’s misfortune. Comparison has a big effect on our emotions, which in turn affects our relationships and even our self-image.

Exercise:

Ask Jesus to show you with whom you are comparing yourself, and write it down.

Prayer:

Heavenly Father, I ask that You will make me free from the comparisons I make in my life. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.
