When You Feel Jealous

Do not worry about the wicked or envy those who do wrong.

For, like grass, they soon fade away. Like spring flowers, they soon wither. Psalm 37:1-2

 We should never envy evil people, even though some may be extremely popular or excessively rich. No matter how much they have, they will fade and vanish like grass that withers and dies.

Those who follow God live differently from the wicked and, in the end, will have far greater treasures for eternity. What the unbeliever gets on earth may last a lifetime, if he or she is lucky.

The benefits of following God will last forever.

 Fr. Augustine Wong
