A Prayer to Resist Wanting What Others Have
A Prayer to Resist Wanting What Others Have by Rachael Adams
Comparison often sneaks in quietly—especially in places where dreams, callings, and success feel close enough to touch. In this episode by Rachael Adams, we explore how envy can take root in our hearts, even when we love Jesus and genuinely want to celebrate others. We unpack the difference between coveting what others have and trusting God with our own unique calling. God invites us into a life of peace, contentment, and joy—one that isn’t threatened by another person’s success.
Reference: Proverbs 14:30
Prayer: Lord, thank you for how you've created me and for the unique blessings and gifts you've given me. Forgive me for being covetous of other people's personalities, appearance, possessions, and accomplishments. When I start feeling envious of another person, remind me to celebrate with them and genuinely desire their success. Help me not to be complacent, but to be content with myself. In Jesus's name, amen.
