Caught UpSample

It’s easy to get caught up in the cycle of trying to achieve something. Working hard to reach a goal or earn something important to you—there’s nothing wrong with that!

In today's reading, Solomon, the writer of Ecclesiastes, reminds us that when it comes to achievement, we need to check our motivations. If we’re doing something because we are jealous or comparing ourselves to others, then we’ll never be satisfied. We’ll never get out of the comparison we’re caught up in!

What’s one goal you’re working toward right now? Today, ask God to help you be motivated by the right things as you try to achieve them.
