Then I observed that the basic motive for success is the driving force of envy and jealousy, Ecclesiastes 4:4...motivated by what we see...others strive to be. Not everyone is meant to be...the president of a nation or high profile celebrity. Yes, they are fine examples of what, with hard work you could aspire to be...but first know there must be a implanted seed...self motivated desire must proceed...be inscribed on your heart, like the apostles creed. Envy and jealousy can only momentarily lead...after the initial jolt of adrenalin...they soon run out of steam. For when the source of their motivation can no longer be tapped into or seen...success becomes a faded dream. God the Father, promotes individual confidence and self esteem...yes, motivated by others dreams...not envy, just admiration and esteem...the fuel that propels the beloved's own dreams...forward.
Drive by ahead...envy and jealousy shot dead, Mommy Dearest
I've never understood envious and jealous folk, because what others have I can also have if I so desire. I'm genuinely happy for people when they are being blessed.
