"Stir up the gift of God which is in you" (2 Timothy 1:6, emphasis mine).
While driving today and then reading my Bible in the passenger seat, I was reminded of the importance of staying in your our own lane. You be you! Run your own race. Nothing good happens when you compare and compete. God does not judge you according to the talents of others. He judges you according to yours. You are responsible for how you use your gifts.
You be you! Don't be your best friend or your parents. You can admire them, appreciate them and learn from them. But you cannot be them. You aren't them.
Look for ways to align your job or your volunteer work with your skills. This may take time but don't give up!
You Be You!
