Always

There will always, always, always be someone better than you at something. There will always be someone who writes better, who communicates better,  sings better, dances better, cooks better, or who looks better. There will always be someone who is a better friend. Someone who is a better wife. Someone who is a better artist, photographer, doctor, dentist. Whatever "it" is for you....there will always be someone  who is better at it than you.
AND THAT IS OK!
I love this quote by Beth Moore, "Where on earth did we come up with the idea that we had to SUBTRACT VALUE from ourselves in order to GIVE CREDIT to someone else?!"
I love that.
Guys....just because someone does something a little better than you does not mean you get to devalue all if you. It is ok! There will always, always, always be someone better than you at things. Let's embrace that, find our value in who God says we are and CELEBRATE when someone does something a little bit better.  It does not mean we have to subtract value from ourselves.
Let's go in confidence today, knowing we are different, knowing we have different strengths, knowing we have different talent levels, and let's live out who God says we are! ♥
