God Chooses You
But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.—1 Peter 2:9 (NIV)

It’s a Journey, Not a Competition
And he said to them, “Take care, and be on your guard against all covetousness, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.”—LUKE 12:15 (ESV)
Life isn’t a competition. The more you recognize that your journey is a beautiful and unique path—and that money or material goods don’t reflect your worth—the more you can experience the flow of God’s blessings in your life right now.
Everlasting God, help me to see the gifts You bestow on me each and every day.
