What's This?!?! :O
I tend to get jealous..or is it envious?If a friend achieves something great, I want it. Other people recognize him/her for it, I also want that. I want to be like that person. Thinking "Can't I?" Why can't I just be happy for him/her? I mean, of course I'm happy and I thank God for his/her achievement; but I also feel sad that I was not able to get that kind of achievement. Isn't that called envy?Gurl, this is sooo wrong..!!>_<.1) Firstly, ask yourself: Do you get up early for class? Do you always go to your class? Don't you get late? Do you finish your homework days before the deadline? Do you come fully prepared for exams? Do you read and study regularly?Whoa! The point here is, if you do your acads responsibly, and other simplest things, you will go a long way! This is where discipline comes in!2) Work to please God, not people. But I do have the heart to serve. Just that sometimes, I forget 'to whom'.3) Excel to glorify His name, not your own! It's not about you, gurl. It's about Jesus Christ.4) The power to do great things come from God, not yourself. We need not be self-reliant because we can rely on God, who is all-powerful.“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight” (Proverbs 3:5-6)5) Pray for things your heart wants to achieve and seek God's favor. He knows our heart and our thoughts. "God probes every heart and perceives every urge of thought" (1-Chronicles 28-9) -"for the LORD searches every heart and understands every motive behind the thoughts." NIV6) You cannot compare yourself to another person. Each one of us is unique and God has His own specific plan and purpose for you. He seeks to put you in a position that's best for you and it's where you would excel for His glory, and stand-out to be a living testimony of His grace.“‘For I know the plans I have for you,’ declared the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future’” (Jeremiah 29:11)"Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will." (Romans 12:2)
Lord, thank you for this! ^___^
