Unqualified - You Can't Hide from Oprah, Pt 11 - 192

Connecting The Gap: Bible, Book Studies, and Interviews

Let us know how this Episode helped you here!

I'm not a fan of Pinterest!
Maybe you aren’t a Pinterest user. Maybe for you it is HGTV or Food Network. Maybe it is Facebook or X. Maybe it is your pastor or neighbor that is super fit or the soccer mom that always looks perfect at the soccer park on any given day of the week no matter what time of the day it is. You look at them and wonder why you can’t have it all together and measure up to their level of abilities and perfection.
Obviously with these multiple examples, the problem with comparison isn’t limited to one particular platform. It is actually a mind-set. The only problem with Pinterest or HGTV is the problem inside of us. It’s the perfect platform for us to have the tendency to perform, to pose, and to pretend, all in an effort to lift up our low self-esteem.
This mindset has to stop, and Jacob’s life teaches us why. To recap where we have been, Jacob’s life showcases some not-so-great tendencies and lifestyles of pretending, manipulating, and deceiving. The other item in this list of issues is comparing.
Do you find yourself comparing your life to everyone else's snapshots? I've been victim of that many times! How do we knock comparison out of our life and learn to live in the provision God has given us? Sometimes, it is a difficult thing to do!
This week we are going to tear down those walls of comparison in this episode of Connecting the Gap. This is probably one of my favorite episodes in this series.
