Each one of us is fearfully and wonderfully made. Each of our fingerprints is unique. We are all different. We are all extraordinary in God's eyes. Savor that thought. Burn it into your memory.
I liked this quote:
"Don't compare your life to others. There's no comparison between the sun and the moon, they just shine when it's time." -Unknown
Both the sun and the moon give us light. Yes, I know one reflection the sun... but it still lights the night. That is exactly what we born to do. We are to reflect the Son. He is the source and we are to reflect his light.
Solomon once wrote that to everything there is a time, a season and a purpose. To waste time and energy on comparisons is simply that... a waste.
But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him”— 1 Corinthians 2:9
With free will comes choices and responsibility. It is easy to feel "less than" another who is more successful or someone with shiny gifts. Embrace the light you are given and shine. No comparisons and no compromise.
Today, I am grateful there is no comparison.
