Christians In Action

When we use the word, "jealous" we use it in a sense of being envious of someone who has what we don't have. This kind of jealousy is a sin. It shows us that we are still being controlled by our desires. Galatians 5:26 says, " Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other. " Being jealous indicates that we are not happy with what God has given us. The Bible tells us to be content with what we have, for God will never forsake us. Hebrews 13:5 says, " Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you. "
