If
"God is Jealous for Me"
why be
Jealous
of anyone or anything else?
Your Creator
knitted you together in your mother's womb
on purpose
for a purpose
because
"God is Jealous for You"
Yet,
Jealously
consumes us,
It comes in all shapes and forms~
Facebook pictures
of the happy family
Instagram pictures
of the perfect day
Snapchat quick moments
capturing laughter.
Yes,
it brings joy to see the happy moments in someone's life,
but what happens
when you start painting a perfect picture of what you think
their life is,
based on a picture.
Who posts pictures of the trial that they going through~
the messy moments
of
what is really is going on in their heart?
Before you become
Jealous
of someone~
Do you know their whole story~
Have you walked in their shoes?
But we still
look at the pictures
look at their lives
and
we want what others have.
Jealous Defined:
feelings of frustration and bitterness because we cannot obtain what we want;
finding fault with those who have what we want or who keep us from getting it. (Bible.org)
Who are you Jealous of?
What are you Jealous of?
Do you know that someone is Jealous of you?
We all have something
that someone wishes they had,
even if you think you don't have anything.
There
is one person whom you should be
Jealous
of
and that is you!
Be
Jealous
that you are breathing today.
Be
Jealous
that you are reading today.
Be
Jealous
that you have a
Jealous God
Who is
Jealous for You!
God
is a
Jealous God~
"God's jealousy is love in action. He refuses to share the human heart with any rival, not because He is selfish and wants us all for Himself, but because He knows that upon that loyalty to Him depends our very moral life. God is not jealous of us: He is jealous for us.” (David Guzik)
God is Jealous for You.
He just wants you~
The You
He created
Because
He so loves you
because
you are
so precious to Him.
"For you are a people holy to the Lord your God. The Lord your God has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be His people,
His treasured possession." Deuteronomy 7:6
Therefore~
Let's
fast
from
Jealous
by letting go of
whomever or whatever
you are
Jealous,
by taking the
hand of the
Jealous One
Who wants to walk with you!
