When someone is burning for God, we can…
𝗔. Get jealous and tell them they are in their honeymoon period and need to grow in wisdom.
𝗕. Find areas of their life they are not doing perfectly in and tear them down in your mind to make yourself feel better.
𝗖. Act like an orphan by talking down about them to others.
𝗗. Let their fire make you hungry for more. Remember God’s nature, that He is no respecter of persons. If you come to Him, He will give you the same passion and intimacy He is giving them!

People who succeed in life do not go around setting scores; they do not even keep scores. They run up the score by doing good to others, even when the others don’t deserve it. They give them better than they are given. And as a result, they often bring the other person up to their level, instead of being brought down to the level of the other.

Have you ever noticed that the world viciously attacks and slanders those who appear to be ‘too happy and too loving’, suspecting that their happiness and loving actions are all an act? And yet, the world either leaves the “terminally negative” people much to their own devices or, worse yet, it idolizes such negativity and labels it savvy, wise, and discerning.

Unfortunately, this mindset has infiltrated many churches and some ministries built their platform around labelling the happy ones as heretics.

Envy lies to you by making you feel like if someone else has what you want, that they’ve somehow taken it away from you. It’s not true.

The moment you resent another person’s happiness is the moment you diminish your own.

If someone is leaving you behind, and you are becoming jealous and embittered, keep praying that he may have success in the very matter where he is awakening your envy; and whether he is helped or not, one thing is sure, that your own soul will be cleansed and ennobled.

The core belief that each person is beautifully unique and valuable, and that there are enough opportunities and resources in the world for every one of us to “happen”– as opposed to the lies that are not valuable and there is not enough for us all to flourish or succeed– leads us to commit to building relationships with high levels of encouragement, affirmation, generosity, and calls to excellence.

I think one of the hardest things in life is learning to “Stay in your lane”. One of the ways to do that, is to CELEBRATE what other people are doing. Competition will put you on the sidelines but celebration of others will allow you to participate in their victories.

Some people have a warped idea of living the Christian life. Seeing talented, successful Christians, they attempt to imitate them. For them, the grass on the other side of the fence is always greener. But when they discover that their own gifts are different or their contributions are more modest (or even invisible), they collapse in discouragement and overlook genuine opportunities that are open to them. They have forgotten that they are here to serve Christ, not themselves.
