To the one he gave five talents, to another two, to another one, to each according to his ability. Then he went away.

Matthew 25:15

True or False: I am the most unhappy, the most dissatisfied with my life, when I compare myself to others. Sometimes I can't break out of the struggle, the mindset of comparison. That mindset robs me. I lose focus. But then God grabs hold of my heart. There is a recognition of the gifts he asks me to steward, a peace that comes by surrendering to His plan for my life...and living it. 

Dear Jesus,

I humbly take what you have given. Show me how to use it, according to your will. Through your perfect love, allow it to be multiplied as a blessing.
