This Or ThatSample

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! But Solomon reminds us here that when it comes to achievement, we need to check our motivations. If any part of what we’re pursuing is motivated by jealousy or comparison—if we’re trying to achieve simply because we want to measure up to someone else—then we’ll never be satisfied. Is there an area of your life where you’re pursuing a goal or trying to achieve something? Pray that God will help you be motivated by the right things as you try to achieve it.
