“Comparison is nothing more than that ugly little green eyed monster..Amen..because when we compare we take away what we have in our own lives..Amen..we look at what others have and we begin to compare their lives to ours..and the next thing you know..you begin to get bitter towards them..and for no reason whatsoever..because somehow people get it in their minds that others don’t deserve good..if they don’t have the same thing or things as them..Amen..then they don’t like the people..even though the people work hard in their lives and daily are determined to make things happen in their lives..but either way it takes you down a road of torment..and it takes you and holds you in a prison..Amen..I was looking at the word and if you loose the a in parison..you have prison..Amen..and that is what happens..because once you feel this way or begin feeling this way by comparing your life to someone else’s life..then you will continue to do just that..and the thing is you disregard your own life and all that you yourself has been blessed with..so you will constantly feel that you don’t have enough..that you are no good..that why do they and we don’t type of attitude..and it will as I say spiral out of control..and you will live miserably..because no one has the same things in life and or the same type of life..we all live our lives differently..and we do differently..but that still gives no right to compare..for none of us want to get there..for we will compare everything..Amen..and the thing about it is this..our worth is not measured by our things we have..or the stuff we have..or how expensive it is..Amen..the size home you live in..the nice car you may drive..the money in your bank account..the clothes you wear..Amen..because for some they can only keep getting bigger and better..because they measure their worth in that..Amen..so they continue on this cycle of never having enough never being content..just always more and more that they need..so they are satisfied on the inside of who they are..but then on the other hand..you got the ones that compare their lives..and they are in a constant..I am not good enough..my home is not big enough..I don’t have the fancy clothes to wear..the nice vacations to go on..I don’t have the brand new car to drive..Amen..and they are always..why me?..why do I have to live this way?..Amen..and so again the cycle for them continues..Amen!”

“But here’s the key to it all..we are to live our lives grateful for all we have been given..1 Thessalonians 5:18/Psalm 107:1..Amen..and we are to be content always..Philippians 4:11-12..Amen..because our worth and who we are is not measured in those things of life..Amen..but its measured by Christ and what He has done for us..we are loved because of who we are in Him..Amen..not what we have..not what we can give..but simply who we are as people..Amen..and when we catch a green eye towards others because of their lives..then we kinda despise them..and for some they simply just talk about them..and then they judge them..Amen..never to know the people..their lives..what they do..nothing just make up these images of what they think..and simply turn the green eyed monster loose and never befriend..never speak kindly towards them..all because they themselves desire them and their lives..and that is not a place to live in your life..not none of our lives..because if we are hating on them..we have no room to love them..and we are not being right nor sharing the love of God..right?..so love your life..don’t constantly measure your worth by looking at someone else’s life..because you have a great life too..Amen..but acknowledge what you have and be thankful for it..and as well don’t constantly feel that you have to get more and more simply to be thriving or living life well..never satisfied where you are..always wanting more..but much rather..live free from the love of money..live free from finding your worth in what you have to what you don’t have in life..and simply look at your life and magnify the good that you do..and all the wonderfulness you my friend have been blessed with..and then live life and live it well..all the while working on your grass..your yard..and your home..Amen..for it is in His name, Jesus’ name, that I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi ❤
