I was sent over to your blog to read your post on comparison because I also wrote on it yesterday. http://kathrynjfletcher.blogspot.com/2012/02/curse-of-comparison.html

I am enough because of Him!! It’s easy to compare ourselves to others and feel inadequate. Thanks for the reminder that Life is not competition but a mission!!
