Have you ever looked at someone else's life and wondered why you're not further along in your own?
In today's episode, Lauren Alessi Burgos takes us into Philippians 3:12 and reminds us that we don't have to have everything figured out to keep moving forward in our faith. Even Paul acknowledged that he hadn't reached his goal or achieved perfection, but he chose to keep pressing on toward what Christ had called him to.
We'll be challenged to stop wasting our energy comparing our lives, accomplishments, and seasons to those of others. Comparison can quickly steal our gratitude and distract us from the blessings God has already placed in front of us. Instead of looking to the left or right, we can focus on our own walk with Jesus, trusting that He is still working in us. We may not be where we want to be yet, but that doesn't mean God is finished with us.
Let's join in prayer and devotion as a community, asking God to free us from comparison, fill our hearts with gratitude, and give us the strength to keep pressing forward with confidence in His purpose for our lives.
