Envy is one of those feelings that shows up before you can stop it—that sinking gut reaction when someone else gets the thing you've been praying for.

Hey y'all ! Welcome to another Wednesday with CWCOI ! In this week's episode, our host, Ally Yost felt led to talk about the feeling of envy and jealousy. God says in His word that envy is a sin and it can easily manifest in us if we are not careful. As followers of Jesus we have to continually ask Him to examine our hearts and today's topic is just one of many examples where we need Him to check us in.
"For the Lord God is our sun and our shield. He gives us grace and glory. The Lord will withhold no good thing from those who do what is right." Psalm 84:11
