Overcoming Jealousy by Phoenixfrank(m): 5:22pm On Oct 05, 2014
The story is told of two shop keepers who were bitter rivals. They spent each day keeping track of each other's business. If one got a customer, he would smile triumphantly at his rival. One night an angel appeared to one of the shop keepers in a dream and said, "I will give you anything you ask, but whatever you receive, your competitor will receive twice as much. What is ur desire?" The man frowned and then said, "Strike me blind in one eye." Now that's jealousy of the worst kind! 1 Corin.3:3 says "For where there are envy, strife and divisions among u, are u not carnal and behaving like men?" One clear indicator that the Holy spirit is working in our lives is our contentment and our thankfulness to God for what we have. Remember Godliness with contentment is great gain.
