Morning Prayer
Jealousy & Envy
“Loving Father, you Word tells me how to love. I know being envious and jealous is not part of Your divine love. Father, I am struggling with envy and jealousy as I see pregnant women and hear of the birth of a new baby. Help me not to deny Your goodness and Your perfect plan for others as you bless them with children. Teach me not to compare my life with others, to take every negative, envious, and jealous thought captive to the obedience of Christ. Replace jealousy with genuine joy and envy with sincere gratitude. I ask Your help to rejoice in truth with others as I hear of pregnancy or both. Thank You for teaching me Your way to love.
In Jesus’ name, amen.”
