Jealousy rises out of the human propensity to compare ourselves with others.

In Genesis 37, the father’s generosity surpassed their sense of fairness.

God’s generosity loves us equally, but treats us differently.

These men were not victims of unfairness. Rather, they were malcontents of kindness.

“Don’t I have the right to do what I want with my own money? Or are you envious because I am generous?” (Matthew 20:15)

“Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances…” (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18)
