This Or Thatಮಾದರಿ

So many of us work hard to become something, achieve something, or even change something about ourselves because we’re comparing who we are and where we are to someone else around us. And though working hard to achieve a goal or see a change in your life isn’t bad, it isn’t helpful when you’re doing it because of comparison. As this verse reminds us, the best motivation for positive things in our lives is God. If we make Him the reason for all we do—if we turn from comparison and choose God as our influence instead—we’ll find peace not just in where we’re going, but where we are. Pray that God would show you places in your life where you are working for others, not Him.
