You know... i'm usually not real ..... hmm..... what's the word.... super open about personal struggles on here.... but I need to add one more to my list of New Years Resolutions......
How many of you out there (i'm hoping it's not just me) spends waaayyyy too much time comparing themselves to other people??? This past year I spent too much time comparing myself to other people.... and making myself feel like I was always falling short.... even if what I was doing was working.... it was either me feeling like I was falling short.... or spending too much time wondering why other people make the choices they make... instead of just focusing on what God was wanting ME to do....
So #4 for me.... is to spend the next year only concentrating on what God thinks of me, and working at pleasing only him... no one else.... and most of all... stop comparing myself to other people...... there is a book I bought a long time ago that I never read... I might give it a shot for one of my "non-fiction" books ... it's called Christ Centered Self Esteem. Anyone ever read it???
Pray for me on this one... k? Well actually all 4.... :-) More prayers can't hurt!
This next year I will try and be real with my blogging and share the blessings as well as the trials....
Thanks everyone!!!
I struggle with this, too. But I already made my list of 10! ;o)
