My dear friend,
let me encourage you—STOP COMPARING YOURSELF TO OTHERS. Comparison is the game of fools, because it robs you of peace, joy, and focus. When you look at where others are, you may feel either envious if they seem ahead or proud if you think you’re ahead—but both are distractions from your real purpose.
God designed your life as a unique race. He set a path before you that no one else can run. Your journey, your timing, and your destiny are not meant to look like anyone else’s. That’s why it’s dangerous to measure your progress with another person’s yardstick.
Stay faithful in your lane. Focus on what God has entrusted to you. Trust His timing, even if it seems slow, because He is never late. Just as in a race, stepping out of your lane leads to disqualification, so also in life, chasing another man’s destiny only leads to frustration.
If you will keep running your race with patience and consistency, without distraction, you will surely get to your destination. Your testimony will come in due season, and it will be beautiful in God’s time.
So lift your head, stop comparing, and keep moving forward. Your race is yours alone—and you will finish it well.
