There is a big problem that we have as human beings. We always want to be the best. We always want to be the most loved, the most appreciated, the most important, the most listened to, the best speaker, the most focused, the most compassionate, the one to be followed, the one who has answers to everything, the list goes on and on.
From my own experience I have realized that there will always be someone better. There will always be someone who does things better than you and me. The question we should be asking ourselves is “what does God say about us?” regardless of how your co-workers are better treated than you by your boss, or your brothers and sisters are better treated by your family and friends, e.t.c.
Listen I had to learn this lesson also and the spirit behind it had to be dealt with. It is pure bondage. If we are doing our best in what God has in store for us let us not be concerned about the next person. Praise God when they progress along. God sees everything and He always knows what is best. We may find our selves in a mess just because we want to prove to the whole world that we are the best. YOU WILL GET WEARY AND TIRED. This affects everyone even Christians. I have been a Christian for some few years before the Lord revealed this in my own life.
My brothers and sisters relax and move on your path. Do not allow yourselves to be pressured by performing. It is interesting how we even compete about the number of people in our churches and the number of people we led to the Lord. Eish! a disaster. Our eyes need to be fixed on the Lord and the path He has set for us. PERFORMING TO PROVE YOURSELF WILL LEAD TO BONDAGE, PERFORMING THE LORDS WILL BRING FREEDOM.
