Don't let Comparison Steal your Joy

I am insanely passionate about purpose, discovering purpose, and fulfilling purpose in our lives.

We are constantly bombarded with images, feeds, articles, posts, videos, etc. about other people’s lives’. This often leaves us with an ache in our soul of all the things others are experiencing and we are not. This comparison only brings anxiety, frustration and feeling like we are not enough, or do not have enough.

Can I for a moment, please, challenge these thoughts, especially to those of you I know personally? You have enough and you ARE enough! Might we focus on what you have been given and who you were created to be? I would challenge that when we know that and can focus on all the gifts, talents, abilities and heart we have, the comparison doesn’t matter anymore. Because we won’t want to be anything other than that which we were created to be.

If you’re desperate for a fulfilling life, full of joy and gratitude, I’d recommend surrender.

Please stop the comparison, all it does is keeps your mind space full of the wrong things, let us focus on who we are and the truth in that, not who we are not (and quite honestly, deep in our hearts have no desire to be).
