Why Does He Get To Do This And I Don't??

"But, but, it's not fair, why can they do this, and I can't?"

One of my biggest arguments with my mother while I was growing up.

Be honest, we have all used that line.

Probably more often then we realize.

How often do we use this line with GOD?

"Let not your heart envy sinners, but continue in the fear of the LORD all the day." Proverbs 23:17

His answer is simple: Don't envy them. Focus on ME.

When we focus on HIM, we don't think about THEM.

Getting mad or envious about what they "get away with," doesn't help us spiritually.

Focusing on GOD does.
