Caught UpSample

You don’t need me to tell you that comparison is a struggle for students all over the world today. Including me! People are constantly comparing their lives to others, especially when it comes to the things we have. When that happens, it can be easy to forget to celebrate what we do have. It can lead us to always want more.

When you find yourself comparing something about yourself to someone else, practice being grateful for what you do have. One thing you’ll always have no matter what is God by your side. No matter what you have or don’t have, you can remember that God will always be with you and will never fail you.

When you find yourself comparing something to others, choose to remember the truth that God will always be with you. Today, spend one minute thanking God for being with you always, and to help you choose to be grateful today for what you do have.
