"Envy, Jealousy, and Coveting"
There is almost nothing quite as bad as envy, jealousy, and/or covetousness. These are some of the worst and most evil conditions there are. The main problem with these emotions is the fact that they are derived from one's personal feelings. It is somewhat funny when people think of jealousy as being a green-eyed monster, as if it were something cute. But believe Me, it is not very cute at all when you think about the damage that can be caused. Jealousy has caused so much trouble, and it is still causing trouble today. Envying and/or coveting what someone is or has can be disastrous emotions as well, which most of you can see going on today. Those of you who have learned to be content with where you are and with what you have attained, will do very well, just as the Apostle Paul was. It is all too easy for such emotions to ruin the best of what men and women have, which is why I just leave people to settle their own affairs in their own ways.
Now listen, My children, there are times when you just have to let some people handle their emotions on their own. Now, of course, envy, covetousness, and/or jealousy, are all basically intertwined. As a matter of fact, they are all negative emotions as well, that do nothing but cause people heartache and pain at times. As I mentioned above, there is nothing better and more relaxing than learning how to be content. When you learn to be content, what anyone else has or does will not bother you. The best way to adapt is to learn to be at ease without having to wonder who has or who does what. Do not allow yourselves to be ruled by your emotions. As a matter of fact, learn to be the master of your emotions rather than allowing your emotions to master you. Blessed are you who learn to keep your emotions in check, as you learn to be content, in JESUS' Most Precious and Holy Name.
AMEN
