Beloved, we already know that we are not envious.
None of us will admit to being envious.
But what we mean is that if we do not rejoice in the success of another person, we are envious.
And if we are envious, we are immature.
The envious person makes only harmful remarks to diminish the prestige of the person he envies.
The envious person does not cooperate wholeheartedly with the one he envies,
This is what happened with Abel and Cain.
Two children from the same family, one of whom, Cain, could not contain himself and turned his jealousy into hatred.
And death entered.
Joseph was sold by his brothers because he had a brilliant destiny and was distinguished in everything.
Joseph was aware of his greatness very early on but his elders could not stand it.
Joseph made everything he touched prosper, he had the grace of multiplication unlike his brothers.
Instead of discovering themselves and giving thanks to the Lord for the deposit they had received, the other children of Jacob concentrated on wanting to drown their brother’s destiny in blood.
We have come this morning to tell ourselves that each of us has received something from the Lord,
We have come to invite us to value the gift that lies dormant within us,
We also want to tell ourselves that if the talent in us is not exploited, we will be frustrated.
So let us thank the Lord for the potential we have,
Let us acknowledge that He is our master and provider.
Let us give all the glory to him who can do all things instead of wasting our time in murmuring and criticism.
Matthew, 25:15 – He gave five talents to one, two to another, and one to the third, to each according to his ability, and left.
Be grateful for your gifts and do not envy others.
It is not for us to decide for the master, he does as he pleases.
It is he who chooses to whom he will give the responsibilities,
He knows to whom he will entrust his heritage.
He has his criteria,
he has his reasons,
he has his expectations.
The Lord gives according to our strength of retention.
It is not by chance.
It is not discrimination,
It is not favouritism,
But it is the spirit of God.
It is not necessary for us to enter into the conflicts and wars that grieve the kingdom.
It is not necessary to hate ourselves for the things we have inherited.
Envy is a waste of time, let us be thankful just for what the Lord is doing in our lives and for what He has given us.
May the glory return to the Lord.
Good morning to all
Good day to you
