I saw this quote floating around over this weekend, and I must say it's one of my favorites.

I think it's natural to compare ourselves to one another. I think that it can be a good thing, but most of the time it's not. At least not for me. I compare myself to a fault.
My house is never as clean as . My blog isn't nearly as interesting as . I'm not as good a teacher as . Just put a name in the blank and you see what I mean.
At times these comparisons can totally steal my joy. They make me feel worthless and jealous.
But then God will gently remind me of the oh so many things I do have to be thankful for. I'm reminded that I'm a daughter of the King and He loves me for who I am and who I'm striving to be. I am reminded that He is the only one I should be interested in pleasing.
And it feels good to rest there.
And it feels good to rest there.
