Jealousy can be a very strong emotion. It can tear us apart and bring out the worst in us. It is one of the main problems we face. It's why we do what we do. It might be why we post something or say something nasty to make other people feel bad. It hurts to feel jealousy so we take it out on others and sometimes try and put others down to make ourselves feel better. Is this really helpful to anyone though.

What we have to do is first accept the circumstances. Acceptance helps us be able to deal with the problem at a realistic level. Next you have to choose to move on and see what you already have. Find the good and appreciate what God has given you and not what he gave someone else. Find what to be great full for instead of being bitter. This shows strength and others will notice it.

"There is that coveteth greedily all the day long; But the righteous giveth and withholdeth not."
