So here's the problem with having 100 kids, at least one of the problems, ultimate success cannot be found in what we produce.  We can't keep it.   Even if you have a great legacy of children they grow up and they move out. They make their own decisions.  If we have the highest achievements, they are temporary.  The answer, then, to fix this problem would be to stop measuring success by what we can produce.  

What should we make of the mean prayers in the Bible?

The horrible rank is the impulse to rank ourselves against everyone else. I’m smarter, she’s prettier, I am less educated, he’s less motivated, I’m above them, they are so far above me… We obsessively assess how we stack up with those around us. The horrible rank doesn’t do us any good. It traps us in a hot, slow, stinky existence. Our constant struggle with feelings of inferiority and superiority is exhausting. Imagine, what could life be like without the horrible rank? https://pastorryanrogers.com/1729-2/

If God has given you a position of leadership or an influential role, take it seriously!

Is there a particular example of something wrong in this world that is especially difficult for you right now? I invite you to dwell on that broken thing for just a moment and remember the truth that the kingdoms of this world will become the kingdom of our Lord. Everything that is currently under the leadership of a sinful human or a satanic power will one day either be destroyed because it has no place in God’s kingdom or it will be ruled by its rightful king.

Revelation 11:15-18

It turns out that the way we treat people actually influences the level of peace we enjoy with them.  Reverse the river of your toxic relationships.

Zephaniah 3:17

The Lord your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save; he will rejoice over you with gladness; he will quiet you by his love; he will exult over you with loud singing.

Did you know that nearsightedness will stunt your growth?  Don’t think so?  Check out 2 Peter 1:9.  If we forget what God has done in us already we have less desire for him to do more.  He has more and it’s good!
