“Comparing ourselves to others is rarely productive.

“In comparing ourselves to others, we separate ourselves from them. Instead of feeling part of the whole body of Christ, I take on the role of a little finger and measure my worth against someone who I think is the shoulders, arms, and torso.

“Generally, when we compare ourselves to others, we either feel inferior or superior, and neither is the case. We are all beloved children of heavenly parents, blessed with a personalized package of spiritual gifts, attributes, talents, and strengths.”

-Camille N Johnson
