“For men who think that they can secure for themselves unshakable glory by pretence and empty show, by dissembling in speech and countenance, are wildly mistaken. True glory takes root and spreads its branches too; but everything false drops swiftly down like blossom; and pretence can never endure.” – Cicero
God has created each of us special….. Let’s not compare ourselves with another, lets be exactly who God created us to be. Pretence can never endure.
Right on sister! It’s so easy, especially as a worldly person to desire to be like someone else and desire there lifestyle, but it is almost harder when you become a Christian because there is that tendency to instead of compare material things but compare spiritual things and desire to be like other Christians in “their” walk. When what God really wants us is to become like Himself.
