1 John 3:12
Do not be like Cain, who belonged to the evil one and murdered his brother. And why did he murder him? Because his own actions were evil and his brother’s were righteous.”
1 John 3:12
Dear Jesus,
What an honest black and white warning. If I am jealous of the good life of another person and the favor they receive from you, I am of the devil. Truth be told I have struggled with jealousy my whole life. I confess it now as an alliance with Satan. I repent of it. Who am I to evaluate your grand design and your decision to bless your people. Forgive me for Jesus’ sake. And give me a generous heart that loves to see others succeed and be blessed. Help me deeply and truly rejoice with them.
Amen

Love gives us the will and the power to murder the envy that lurks in our hearts.
