Envy is rampant through the church in our society. How often does strife bud up because another sees God using another, or one becomes upset over the recognition that is being given to another instead of themselves. We should be wary over twinges of jealousy that we feel when another is placed in honor as it as a powerful weapon in the arsenal of Satan which he uses well. Many a church split and cause of Christ is hindered because one wants the position and honor that another has. Envy and jealousy often fails to consider the struggles of the other. Moses 's position was very honorable yet was filled with heartache and struggles leading a stiff-necked and ignorant people. Did they also envy Moses the heartbreak, did the envy his struggles or just the glory. It is very dangerous to allow envy to ** the way we see the world and view people.
