Thief of EverythingSample

Who are the people in your life you represent? Maybe a coach, teacher, or parent? What are the activities you represent? Your sport, band, or video game you’re great at. We all represent multiple things from various aspects of our lives; we represent our families, friends, teams, activities, and hobbies. But, one of the most important things we represent is our relationship with God. With that in mind, we remember that the things we say and do are also representations of our relationship with God. If what we are doing and saying about ourselves or others is tearing each other down because of comparison, we're not representing how thankful we are for what God has already given us.

Today, ask God to show you ways you may be tearing others down because of comparison. Then, ask God to help you live in a way that represents how grateful you are for all God has given you. This isn’t about feeling guilt or shame, it’s about being real and experiencing the life change God offers to us.
