A Prayer to Combat Comparison

Have you ever walked away from a playdate, a scroll through social media, or a simple conversation and suddenly felt like you or your family weren’t “enough”?

Today's prayer by Nicolet Bell reminds us that comparison sneaks in quickly and quietly, leaving us unsettled, discontent, and distracted from the joy God desires for us. We reflect on Galatians 1:10 and the truth that we cannot seek the approval of people and the approval of God at the same time.

Reference: Galatians 1:10

Prayer: Father, reveal to us who we are trying to please. In a world in constant comparison, help us to model for our children what it looks like to seek your approval, and yours alone. Guard our hearts and the hearts of our children so we might have sole devotion to you.
