Each of us is an original // 22-07-19

“Since this is the kind of life we have chosen, the life of the Spirit, let us make sure that we do not just hold it as an idea in our heads or a sentiment in our hearts, but work out its implications in every detail of our lives. That means we will not compare ourselves with each other as if one of us were better and another worse. We have far more interesting things to do with our lives. Each of us is an original.” Galatians‬ ‭5:25-26‬ ‭MSG‬‬

Lord, save me from the futility of comparison where I judge my life and my worth against other people! Help me understand that my true value and purpose only comes when I keep my eyes on You and no one else! I only want to do what You have planned for me, so put my life to good use today, strong in the knowledge that I am made in Your image, a masterpiece, created for Your good works. Help me to be the best version of the me You want me to be. Amen 🙏🏼
