During a particularly testing time of our holiday, when everything seemed to be be going wrong, I found myself on my own, bodyboarding in the sea. I looked over at a 'perfect' German family, much like my own, with Mum, Dad, & two teenage girls. They were having a great time, all surfing perfectly together. I found myself longing for what they seemed to have, but then I heard a voice in my head that said quite clearly - 'Stop looking at them' I understood almost immediately that God wanted me to concentrate on my own life and not compare myself to others.
