It is: “Compare Yourself to Others Day!” Do you or don't you? That is the question!

I pray for an increase of the fruit of the Holy Spirit agape [selfless] love, peace, and self-control for each and every one of YOUR adopted sons and daughters who reads or listens to this prayer. I thank YOU LORD Holy Spirit for dwelling with the soul of each of who are YOUR adopted sons and daughters. YOU sanctify the soul of each of us in YOUR perfect timing and sequence as YOU transform our soul into YOUR image. ‘Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me—practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you.' [Philippians 4:8-9 ESV]
I lift each of YOUR adopted sons and daughters who are struggling with pride as well as its cousin’s jealousy and envy to YOU LORD. I pray for an increase in transparency, discernment and humility for each of us LORD. 'A tranquil heart gives life to the flesh, but envy makes the bones rot. [Proverbs 14:30-31 ESV]
I lift the abused, the sex-trafficked, slaves, street walkers, runaways, the suicidal, and other denizens of the night to YOU LORD. YOU allow evil to seem to triumph for a season. YOUR patience was sufficient for each of us to recognize our need for salvation in response to the earnest prayers of the saints for our salvation. I pray that YOU deliver as many of the abused, the sex-trafficked, and slaves from their tormentors and that YOU regenerate the soul of most of them as a many of their tormenters as YOU are willing. ‘The saying is trustworthy and deserving of full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am the foremost. But I received mercy for this reason, that in me, as the foremost, Jesus Christ might display his perfect patience as an example to those who were to believe in him for eternal life. To the King of the ages, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen. [1 Timothy 1:15-17 ESV]
As far as those who are focused too much on comparison with others especially the individuals who believe they are repulsive, I pray that YOU remind each one that they are precious in YOUR sight. 'For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.' [Psalm 139:13-14a ESV]
I pray that you and your family members are he4lthy and that the soul of each of you is prospering.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ.

Comparing oneself to others is a waste of time and energy. We end up comparing our "insides" to others "outsides" since we have no idea what they have experienced or what they are going through. The best comparison is to oneself...have you improved since... have you done better...worked harder than yourself a set amount of time ago? We ae all individuals and our job is to do our best as ourselves not as someone else.

“Why compare yourself to others? It’s a losing proposition. You are who you are and your unique. You have gifts and talents of your own to share with your friends, family and the world. When you start wishing you had someone else’s life, talents, and uniqueness you lose sight of who you are and what your purpose is in life.
‘Don’t compare yourself to others, you are you. No one could come close to being you even if they tried.’ — Unknown Author
May you always be you and never compare yourself to others; it’s a waste of energy, time, and your life; may your mind, body, and soul be opened to grace, goodness, peace, forgiveness, and a continued bountiful life of purpose; and keep your family safe, secure, happy, and healthy. Here’s to be you- Salute.” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
