Proverbs 6:34
34 For jealousy is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance.
James 3:16
16 For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work.
Have you ever set next to someone and listened to them complain about the things they do not have? Most of the time they are complaining because someone else got something that they wanted. The truth is that if we are not careful, we will fall into this exact same mindset. We will become so jealous and envious of others that we forget that just maybe what we did not receive was not God’s plan. Whenever someone gets something that you want, congratulate them. Then remember God has something waiting on you. You just have to wait a little longer for it.
