Rotting the bones. That’s what envy will do.
“A heart at peace gives life to the body, but envy rots the bones.”
Envy is a thief. It will steal your peace…destroy relationships…and take away the joy of living.
Envy is wanting to have what someone else has — their appearance…their possessions…their influence. And when you foster envy…you bring rot to your bones.
Entertaining envy is an insult to God. It is an accusation that He is unfair and unjust…and guilty of favoritism.
Instead…rejoice in who you are…and live your life fully for Jesus.
When you spot envy…squeeze it out with a heart of gratitude.
