"I need to compete with other girls to be chosen or valued."
How it sounds in your head: There's a limited supply of attention, guys, opportunities. If she wins, you lose. You have to be prettier, smarter, funnier, or you'll be left behind. It's you vs. every other girl.
"Being confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ."
-- Philippians 1:6Enemy scarcity lie designed to divide women and create competition instead of community.
You see how guys compare girls. There's always someone prettier in the room. Friend groups have hierarchies. College applications are competitive. It feels like there's not enough room for everyone to win.
Ruth and Naomi were both widows with nothing—they could have competed for scraps. Instead, Ruth said 'Where you go I'll go.' They worked TOGETHER, and both ended up blessed—Naomi's family line restored and Ruth married to Boaz.
I REFUSE the lie that I must compete with other women to be chosen or valued. IT IS WRITTEN that He who began a good work in ME will complete it. Her win is not my loss. I was chosen before the foundation of the world. IT IS WRITTEN that I am blessed with EVERY spiritual blessing in heavenly places. There is no scarcity in the Kingdom. I celebrate other women's success because the BARAK blessing multiplies, not divides. I am the head and not the tail, above only and not beneath—and there's room for ALL of us at the top.
The Father isn't holding one crown and making you fight for it. He's running toward you with a crown custom-made for YOU, celebrating her victory AND yours, pouring out blessing on blessing with no competition, only abundance.
