Too often when we follow Christ, we have a tendency to envy or begrudge others. On the other hand, it could just be a failure to notice God's blessings because someone else has been blessed more in our opinion. When we hear a Christian who has had a great financial burden lifted, we may ask why we haven't received the same type blessing instead of thanking God that we have been blessed by having our needs met without a crisis. God has promised to meet our every need, but often we want what others have been blessed with and feel upset at their blessing. To successfully follow Christ in today's world, as has been true since His coming, we can only accept the fact that He is with us every step of the way, as long as we follow His leadership and live thankfully for what He has given us. There is never a time for His people to be upset because it seems someone else has been more blessed. All material blessings will pass away, but His gift of salvation is forever. For that, we should count ourself blessed beyond measure every day.
