Success looks vastly different for two followers of Jesus.

For one person, it might mean never tasting alcohol. For another person, it might mean staying sober for one night.

For one person, it might mean never saying a cuss word. For another person, it might mean they stop using the Lord’s name in vain for one week.

For one person, it might mean teaching a class two nights a week to young people who want to know Jesus. For others, it might mean attending their first class to learn about Jesus.

We are all on different journeys, and we have different starting places. Therefore, we cannot compare our lives with others.

Celebrate your successes as you grow in the Lord. They are genuinely YOUR successes, and you have every reason to be happy with how you are changing now that you are a believer.
