August 2, 2017 Devotional: Comparisons
What are the standards against which I should compare myself?
God's Response:
As the Spirit of the Lord works within us, we become more and more like him and reflect his glory even more.
- 2 Corinthians 3:18, NLT
Yes dear friends, we are already God's children, and we can't even imagine what we will be like when Christ returns. But we do know that when he comes we will be like him, for we will see himas he really is.
- 1 John 3:2, NLT
God's Promise:
Just as we are now like Adam, the man of the earth , so we will someday be like Christ, the man from heaven.
- 1 Corinthians 15:49, NLT
Reflection (made by the blogger herself):
Its not really good to compare yourself to others. Remember God made each of us and we are unique & we have gifts and talents God gave us with to use (Refer to Ephesians 4:24) . We can't compare to Jesus because He is the standard and He is also perfect. When we accept Jesus as our Lord and savior, we give our life to Him & He'll help you go to the right path. Don't compare yourself to others and focus on being yourself with Christ in your life.
