Comparing Ourselves with Ourselves

Galatians 6: 4 says, "But let each one examine his own work, and then he will have reason for boasting in regard to himself alone, and not in regard to another." 
     We are not to compare ourselves with others.  But we are to examine our self and compare our self now to the way we were in the past.  Our growth in the Lord should only be compared with what we used to be compared with what we are now.  Our talk should be about what God has done in our own personal life and not some judgment made about another person and their walk with God in comparison with our own walk.  Each of us are new creations and God's glory in our lives is based on where and how He found us and where He has brought us today!  We can boast in that but "not in regard to another".
