Ep 48: The Extremes: Both Dust of the Earth and Magnificent
Our main challenge as humans is against ourselves, not against each other.
We think people and things and circumstances outside of us are our biggest challenge, but the truth is our challenge is with ourselves.
When we live in a state of constant comparison, it leads us to choosing to believe that we are either "dust of the earth," good for nothing, and worthless, OR that we are super important, and better than someone else. The adversary wants us to CHOOSE ONE or the other, because both beliefs create sin and misery.
The truth is we are BOTH SIMULTANEOUSLY.
Choosing one or the other (dust or super duper important) dismisses God's hand in our life and His hand in our creation. BOTH perspectives cause us to take all the credit for our creation. Both are self-absorbed ways of living. Both feel terrible.
If we are to understand who we are and what we're doing here, we also have to accept that we are SIMULTANEOUSLY BOTH dust AND the greatest of God's creations!
God only compares us to old us. Me to old me.
Our challenge is NOT against each other. It's only against ourselves.
