"A heart at peace gives life to the body, but envy rots the bones." Proverbs 14:30
Thought for the Day: Every situation has both good and bad. When I want someone else's good, I must realize that I'm also asking for the bad that comes along with it.
"...but envy rots the bones." OUCH! I'm grateful (not boastful) to say that envy isn't something I struggle with all the time. Oh I do have moments of struggle with envy, especially on ugly/fat days. Guys don't understand those days, because no matter what a guy looks like he will look in the mirror & think "I look GOOD!" I am working on being healthier but I can say for probably the first time in my life, I like the way I look. Again please don't take that as prideful, because that is not my intent. Last year the Lord convicted me about being an image bearer of Christ & that my body is a temple. Well since I am an image bearer of Christ & my body is a temple, it doesn't make since for me to constantly be hatin' on my looks, shape, etc.
