Referenced Scripture: 

Proverbs 14:30, Psalm 73, Hebrews 4:15-16

 

Reflection Questions: 

1) Describe a time when you were envious of a person or a group of people? What did they have that you wished you had? What things tend to stir up envy in your life? How have you seen envy diminish your life and relationships?

 

2) What makes envy such a dangerous sin in our relationships with people and our relationship with God? How can our envy of people lead us to anger and frustration with God himself?

 

3) Read Psalm 73 What do you learn from Asaph about praying your feelings of envy and jealousy? What things changed Asaph’s perspective and heart? How can you do something similar with your feelings of envy?

 

4) How can seeing your life in the context of eternity change your perspective on your life and circumstances?

 

5) How can learning the discipline of celebrating the successes of others help overcome feelings of envy? Who could you celebrate publicly that you have had feelings of jealousy?
