Envy Others?
Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who find themselves becoming envious. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Scripture warns against coveting in Exodus 20:17.
Still, some believers envy others’ possessions, relationships, and stations in life.
1 Corinthians 13:4 (ESV) says,
“Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant.”
The way of love is clear. It does not focus on what one does not have or what one wants. Love is other-centered. Find yourself envying others? Take steps to stop jealous desire. Love others.
