Here's a little piece to brighten up your day and enlighten you on the need to stop comparison and be grateful

"My mates are getting married.
My mates are getting good jobs.
My mates are succeeding.
My mates are living overseas.
My mates are buying cars.
My mates are building houses.".
My mates are this... my mates are that...


It's too bad you forgot about your mates in the
mortuary, your
mates in the psychiatric homes, your mates that are
roaming on the streets,
your mates that are jobless, hungry, blind, deaf...
Some of your mates are in jail without committing
any crime..
You ate last night but some didn't or couldn't...
You have work and sources for daily living while
some have nothing to look up to..
You are alive not because you are faithful or because
you have never sinned before but it is the MERCY of
God Almighty that kept you alive.
You might not be where you wish to be today, but
you have
obviously Gone past where you were yesterday.
Be thankful.
