Do you find yourself looking around at other people’s lives with a little envy? Maybe somebody else has a bigger business, more interesting friends, a healthier physique, better behaved kids, or goes on more lavish vacations… If you constantly long for the life of your neighbor, you’ll live a life of restlessness, writhing in never-ending discontentment and unhappiness. Fixating on someone else’s life robs you of joy and gets in the way of what Jesus wants you to experience on your journey with him. You don’t need envy to get where you need to go; in fact, if you really want to love your life, you need to live your life and not somebody else’s.
Homework
Ask God to change the way you think about your life and everybody else’s life.
