Vanity, failure or Complete dependance

 

 

Comparison is a thief of joy.

 

No one is thinking about you… because they are all to worried about what others are thinking about them.

 

Hike your own hike. Do your own thing. 

 

Who do you compare yourselves to?

…You do realize it is unrealistic - We never compare ourselves to someone who is just like us… wanna know why? Because there is only one of you.

 

Why do you compare yourselves too?

But in that ask yourself why are you comparing yourself to anyone? 

Most likely the world pressures you to compare simply by the images we see and the narrative we hear. 

 

 

We should compare to Jesus…Why

   - We see how futile and silly that is if we do this without him

 

 

Galatians 6:4 Pay careful attention to your own work, for then you will get the satisfaction of a job well done, and you won’t need to compare yourself to anyone else. 5 For we are each responsible for our own conduct.

 

Romans 12:2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

 

*How are we conformed? By comparison… what I should look like, be like, act like etc…

 

 

 

Matthew 5:48 Be ye perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect. 

 

Perfect = Gk = be your full potential, be completed in Jesus. 

 

The biggest enemy of comparison: You are trying to be someone else.

When you get to heaven God is not going to ask you why you were not more like “____________”.

He is going to ask you why you were not more like him and who he created you to be? 

 

Vanity, failure or Complete dependance… it’s all a matter of comparison.
