Rise Above Envy
A heart at peace gives life to the body, but envy rots the bones.—Proverbs 14:30 (NIV)
How great is God—beyond our understanding! The number of his years is past finding out.—Job 36:26 (NIV)
Job tried desperately to understand God’s actions. And although God responded to Job with a flurry of questions, He never directly answered him. God’s response shows that His actions, His reasons cannot be reduced to human understanding.
Heavenly Father, when I get frustrated and try to understand Your plan, lead me back to accepting that it is not for me to know all the answers right now.
A heart at peace gives life to the body, but envy rots the bones.—Proverbs 14:30 (NIV)

Enoch walked faithfully with God; then he was no more, because God took him away.—Genesis 5:24 (NIV)
