ECCLESIOLOGICAL ETCHING
October 17, 2021

Many different people have said it many different ways, but let me say it this way: Do not live vicariously the blessings of others while ignoring your own. Today in worship, we will talk about envy. To have envy is to lose all excitement for what we have as we grow in excitement for what is not yet our own. We can still be happy and excited for others when they achieve something. That’s not being envious. Yet too often we wander the world wearing glasses with green lenses and wonder why everyone else’s lawn is greener. Our vision is skewed, and upon closer look without optical interference, we might just find the grass is not any greener on the other side of the fence… and might even have a few more brown spots than our own.

Holy and Exalted God, where there is an abundance of blessings in life, provide me with a heart that perceives and celebrates. And where there are those who do not have even the most basic necessities of life and truly do live a life of scarcity, may the places of abundance in my own life provide a gift of sustaining hope. Amen.
