Insecurities

I keep getting from DH that my son is not the same as other boys his age in academics.  I consider my son to be very bright but lately it seems as though my DH is falling into the hopeless pit of comparison that I have only recently climbed out of.  He has been commenting on my son's handwriting and ability to reason and such.  He hates writing and he is a warehouse of useless information! Like me! lol  Really though, he is very smart about stuff and mostly and most importantly knows Jesus!  how much better is that???  He has asked to be saved at the tender age of 7 and is very much about God and faith.  That is the best thing.  I count this as the best knowledge of all.

2Cor. 10:12 For we dare not make ourselves of the number, or compare ourselves with some that commend themselves: but they measuring themselves by themselves, and comparing themselves among themselves, are not wise.

This has been a verse that I have turned to recently and remind myself often.  I know it to be true but I can feel the tug by my husband's desires and my own pride to take matters into my own hands. UGH!  Please Lord help me to only measure myself by your standards and your commands.

A place to ramble, a place to get on my soapbox, a place to contemplate and a place to whine; a place to be heard. Isn't that what we all want?
