Transforming our Envy (Invidia)
● Main Point: A life of the Spirit of Jesus helps us swap envy for kindness as we allow him to work in our brokenness.
● Fruit of the Spirit: Kindness
UNPACKING ENVY:
● Focus: Resentment towards others who have something desirable, whether status, wealth, talents, or relationships.
● Core Motivation: Discontent with one’s own blessings and joy in others' misfortune.
● Example: Sabotaging someone’s success, harboring bitterness over someone else’s achievements.
● Spiritual Consequence: Envy robs a person of gratitude and breeds division.
