Hey Bestie, in this episode, we dive into the concepts of capacity and comparison—two areas that often shape how we navigate our roles as wives, mothers, and believers. We’ll start by defining capacity: what it means, why it’s unique to each of us, and how understanding it can free us from the trap of comparison. God has designed each of us with a unique purpose, strengths, and limits. Trying to operate beyond our God-given capacity often leads to burnout, resentment, and feeling inadequate.

We’ll explore how comparison can be a dangerous distraction, keeping us from the joy and peace that come with honoring the unique capacity God has given us. Through a biblical lens, we’ll talk about why it’s so important to focus on our own journey rather than getting caught up in what others are doing.

Key Takeaways:

1. Defining Capacity - Discover what capacity means and why God has given each of us a unique set of abilities, talents, and limits.
2. The Barrier of Comparison - Learn how comparison can rob us of contentment and shift our focus away from God's plan for us.
3. Practical Tips - Real-life strategies for staying grounded in gratitude, tuning out comparison, and trusting God with our specific roles and capacities.

Join us as we uncover how to lean into our unique capacities and embrace the freedom that comes from leaving comparison behind. Let’s find encouragement together in living out our purpose with intention and gratitude. Gratitude journal from Gale on Amazon at https://a.co/d/bUJB1M8
