Bitter? Jealous? No problem? BIG PROBLEM!!!

When is a good time to worship God? Or just say thank you Jesus? ANYTIME!! Like right now. Thank you Jesus for all that you do for us. Help keep us safe and let us praise your name all day long.

James 3:14-15 "But if you are bitterly jealous and there is selfish ambition in your heart, don't cover up the truth with boasting and lying. For jealousy and selfishness are not God's kind of wisdom. Such things are earthly, unspiritual and demonic."

Wow! Does this hit home with most of us!! Bitter jealousy and welfish ambition are inspired by the devil. It is easy for us to be drawn into wrong desires by the pressures of society and sometimes even by well-meaning Christians. By listening to the advice of assert yourself, go for it, set high goals, we can be drawn into greed and destructive competitiveness.

Seeking God's wisdom delivers us from the need to compare ourselves to others and to want what they have. Thank you for reading. Take time to do some soul searching and see exactly where you are. Love you all

In Christ's Love and Grace
Johnny
