GOD'S PROMISES - ENVY

There are times when it seems like other people around us are getting all the good breaks. They have committed relationships, and they are doing fun things in their lives like going to movies, out to dinner, and taking trips. They also seem to be able to buy new cars, houses and various things that we may need and want. When we see these things happening it is easy to become envious of what others have that we don't.

Pray and ask God to help you not to become envious and jealous when it seems like others are moving ahead and you are stagnant or even left behind. Praise God for the miracles and the awesome things that He is doing in your life. You want what God has for you in His perfect timing, not the things that you see other people have or are able to do.

Ask God to give you a heart that is free and pure from envy or jealousy. Be happy for those people and ask God to continue to bless you with the things that He has for you in His perfect timing.
