An intentional behavior of getting the cue from one then trying to outdo or one-up them
If you share something positive for your family or community, a friend with hidden jealousy (or something sinister) might respond by sharing something similar, only bigger or better for his own glory (or just to be noticed that he is better). In other words, you may notice a pattern of behavior where they not only imitate you, but also try to go one step farther. Say, you buy a new car for your family and then BOOM.... just a few weeks later, that friend gets himself the "exact same car" but the newest model or with some freebies also for his family! 

Well of course, buying the same car doesn’t always indicate jealousy or something more.... He  might simply just like the car. But this behavior suggests something intentional. I mean like the example, "the exact same car --but with freebies/extras"...Showing it off to all..making them know that.."I have it too but better"....Hmmmm...Imagine that...

A behavior to make themselves feel better? Yeah..these people (friends or so they say) feel better about themselves by making others feel worse. They have this some misguided way of boosting themselves taking aim at another person. Getting their ego to have that temporal relief from the ill-will that they inflict others. 

We all have that friend that turns everything into a competition or something else... No matter what, they have a way to make the situation about them. You buy a phone, they talk about buying a better one, you rent a new apartment, they talk about buying a house of their own, etc. Comparison isn’t limited to positive experiences, some people even compete when it comes to "suffering", your new laptop bonked on you, that friend says he has an old dilapidated desktop, you have little money, they have none, etc. 

Some may argue competition pushes people to do their best...sometimes...IF it’s a sport or game. Not every situation is...But sometimes the other's ambition is linked to beating others. It won’t be long before that "ambition" or what you call it beats you down too. Why? Because you cause ill-will to others. And because, there will always be someone stronger, faster, better (if that’s you, the "glory" may only last for a moment). When we link our self-worth to where we rank among others, it becomes something linked to external factors and can negatively impact yourself.

The right thing to do is respect others and treat them as you would like them to treat you. Don't be a fake-friend to others. Be decent enough to be genuinely pleasant for others.]]> [Image: CrX6H7C.png]

Sharing A Prayer for Trusting God in Hard Times

During these hard times of anxiety and worry (and even helplessness) a little prayer won't hurt. Even we are not "practicing" (religious) people or once upon a time "was" practicing but as the years went by has gone different path we need to have some kind of inspiration or something to hold-on to. As the world is gripped with COVID-19 I'd like to share this article I came upon earlier in the day. 


.......We all want God to answer our prayers. We believe in the power of prayer, but when it comes down to our own individual lives and our own problems, we often don't have the faith to believe God will answer. The times we are living in are difficult. We are often trapped by our unbelief and fear, but God is preparing us for the end-time harvest. He wants to enlarge our territory. He wants to bless us with increase, because His nature is to care and bestow divine favor on us.

We are the ones who limit Him because of our lack of trust and our fear of stepping out in faith. The truth is that the things we do for God should be outside of our own ability and should be trusting in His supernatural ability. When we back away from dependence and trust in God, we are not living by faith. He wants us to trust and obey His Word. He wants us to be strong and courageous.....
Quote:A Prayer for Trusting God in Hard Times

Lord, I thank You that You are the God of the impossible. You can do anything. I want to trust in Your ability and not my own. Teach me to see difficulties in my life from Your perspective. Help me to focus on You and Your power. I want to be like Joshua and Caleb who believed in a good report and focused on You even in hard circumstances (Numbers 14:7-9). My responsibility is to carefully read, trust, and obey Your Word. Today I bring before You this difficulty in my life [Name a hard situation you are right now facing]. Help me not to fear but to trust You in this situation. I declare my faith in Your ability to fulfill Your promises to me. You will fight for me and win the battles in my life. You are mighty, powerful, righteous and true.  

I have nothing to fear with You on my side. I will be strong and courageous even in hard times. I will not be terrified or discouraged, for the Lord my God will be with me wherever I go (Joshua 1:9). You will never leave me or forsake me (Joshua 1:5). I do not need to figure everything out. You already know the best plan for my life. I will not try any man-made method to do only what You can do. Show me Your supernatural power. Teach me how to walk by faith and pray breakthrough prayers. I choose to have faith in Your ability to break through every obstacle in my life. Just like Joshua, You will give me the land and every place where my feet step (Joshua 1:3). “Through you we push back our enemies; through your name we trample our foes. I do not trust in my bow, my sword does not bring me victory; but you give us victory over our enemies, you put our adversaries to shame. In God we make our boast all day long, and we will praise your name forever” (Psalm 44:5-8).
 
“Lord, you have assigned me my portion and my cup; you have made my lot secure. The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; surely I have a delightful inheritance. I will praise the Lord, who counsels me; even at night my heart instructs me. I have set the Lord always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will rest secure, because you will not abandon me to the grave, nor will you let your Holy One see decay. You have made known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand” (Psalm 16:5-11). In Jesus name, Amen.
