Episode Details

Comparison can make a perfectly good life suddenly feel inadequate.

So how do you stop measuring your success against everyone around you?

In today's 5-minute Christian devotional, we explore Ecclesiastes 4:4 and its striking warning about envy, ambition and the endless ladder of success. Instead of looking sideways at what other people have achieved, we discover a better question: What sort of life do I actually want to have lived?

We'll also explore a simple exercise that can help you replace borrowed measures of success with something far more meaningful - everyday faithfulness to God.

What measure of success could you care a little less about today? Share yours in the comments.
