A heart at peace gives life to the body, but envy rots the bones.
– Proverbs 14:30 (NIV)
Today’s commentary
by Dave Whitehead, Author of Making Sense of the Bible
Envy may be one of the great sins of our generation. Television and the Internet expose us to the lifestyles of the rich and famous, and, deep in our heart, we want to be like them. How can we tell that we are envious? Look at the deep sense of dissatisfaction that permeates our society. People are not happy because people want more than they have. Our envy has made life rotten to the bones, and the need for repentance in America is as great as ever.
