Out of the Wreck

This has been one of those weeks of seeing my own judgmental-ness and yuck. Part way through the week one of our pastors and friends tweeted (yes, thank you social media) this:
Comparison is the thief of joy (Roosevelt).
How much time today will you spend comparing yourself to something for your peace of mind?
In the midst of my judgemental-ness I was comparing myself to others in order to feel better about me. Gross. But I do this a lot. And I was thankful for the reminder that called me into repentance and invited me into experiencing true joy.
Then yesterday morning I read the Utmost for His Highest for the day.  It too reminded me that  no matter what, God is near and will give me what I need for each day.
