Don't try to outdo others

according to last Sunday's worship service, he said we shouldn't try to outdo others or it'll only lead us to sadness. trying to outdo others is like saying you're not satisfied with how God created you. It'll only bring you distress because you try to be better, but God loves you the way you are, if He wanted you to be better, He would've made you that way. be glad for how you were created. for example, 14 years ago I was operated on to remove my cyst, for some reason, my thyroid was removed as well, we discovered the removal when I was already 13. the result of that thyroid removal is, my hormones were slowly consumed, thus slowing my growth.

when I was in second year high school,I began to grow because of the hormone therapy. I began catching up on those years, in 4 years time, I grew about a foot in height. But the time it took me to grow, I already made mistakes and did stupid things. I often thought 'what if I were normal' but now, I am grateful for how the Lord made me. if not, I wouldn't have met some people whom I hold dear these days. every-single-mistake I made, every-single-circumstances I've encountered, I'm grateful. It made me to who I am now, and let me meet some really wonderful people, it also made me learn things I wouldn't have if I were normal and I wouldn't have met you. Thanks for reading this and I hope you are happy with what God gave you. He knows what's best.
