Sometimes we spend so much time looking at what someone else is doing that we forget to appreciate what God created us to do.
The fish was never meant to fly.
The bird was never meant to swim.
Neither one is failing. They simply have different purposes.
Maybe you’re looking at someone else’s success, ministry, career, family, finances, opportunities, or journey and wondering, “Why can’t my life look like theirs?”
But comparison has a way of making you feel behind when God may simply be leading you somewhere different.
You don’t need their wings.
You don’t need their waters.
You need to discover your purpose and be faithful to it.
What God has called you to do may not look impressive to everyone else, but obedience was never about looking impressive.
Stop measuring your journey against someone else’s.
Swim if God made you to swim.
Fly if God made you to fly.
Just don’t spend your life wishing you were something God never asked you to be.
Your purpose is enough. 🕊️🐟
