Devotional
Too often, we look at others and think about how great they are, how good they are in what they do, maybe there is something they have, we don’t have. As we see all these, some thought will gradually begin to form inside us, at some stage it will begin to convict us, making us feel we are short-changed. Before we know it, we begin to wish we were someone else, something different. But what we don’t understand is that we are complete in Christ Jesus, (Col 2:10).
Key Scripture
And you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power.Colossians 2:10 NKJV
Refreshing for the Day
Don’t wish to be something different, but pray to be the best of your kind.
Beloved, what others have is designed for them; if you had it, it would be a burden than a blessing, because it wasn’t designed for you. So, have a new perspective, appreciate who you are, and be grateful to God. You are complete in Christ Jesus, don’t let anything make you feel inferior, insignificant. You are loaded with lots of gifts; so, let them shine. Show your talent, express your style and own it. We don’t need an imitation; we don’t need a copy. We need the original you. Stay Lifted!
