THE WORD: 2 Corinthians 10:12

For we dare not class ourselves or compare ourselves with some who commend themselves. But when they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are not wise.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

Are you tired of feeling like you’re not good enough? Do you find yourself constantly comparing your life to others, only to feel inadequate and unhappy? It’s time to break free from the comparison trap!

As the Bible says, ‘For we dare not class ourselves or compare ourselves with some who commend themselves. But when they measure themselves by themselves and compare themselves with themselves, they are not wise.’ (2 Corinthians 10:12)

Comparing yourself to others is a surefire way to destroy your peace of mind and lead to unwise behaviour. But there’s a better way.

As Anne Peterson so aptly puts it, ‘We need to refute Satan’s lies by saturating ourselves with the truth…it’s only by learning the Scriptures that we can sort them out.’

Trust God to work in your life in ways that are beyond your understanding, and start living the life of freedom and joy that He has for you.

Don’t let Satan’s lies hold you back – choose to trust God and focus on your own journey today!
