Let this be a reminder to stay in your own lane! Don't be tempted into comparing your life with the lives of your Facebook or Twitter friends. Think of it this way: God has you exactly where He wants you. Who are we to argue with God? Everything is a test, and if we can't make the best with little, then how can we expect to be given plenty?
Let me remind you of the wonderful place you are in right now. Being in God's will means having a life of guaranteed elevation. It may seem like those who are not saved (yet!) are having success on every level, but that's the deception Satan uses to pull the next person down. Those of the world can go no higher than the world. But those who live to serve God will have a life of borderless elevation--on Earth and in Heaven. This isn't our home! Our main goal shouldn't be to succeed here, because everything here is temporary. We are here to serve God and sow seeds into the hearts of the unsaved by ministering love.
Focus on being a servant of God and enjoy it!
2 Corinthians 10:12 Not that we dare to classify or compare ourselves with some of those who are commending themselves. But when they measure themselves by one another and compare themselves with one another, they are without understanding.
Galatians 1:10 For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ.
Matthew 6:19-21 “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
