Proverbs 24:1 Do not be envious of evil men, Nor desire to be with them;

This is a hard verse sometimes. We see how others may be prospering, and all the nice things that they have and it's hard not to want what they have. What we must realize is all that glitters is not gold. They may seem like they have everything, but I am sure that if you ask them, that they still feel like they are missing something. How sad is that. What we also must realize is that when we have God in our lives, we are richer that any man on this earth. We may not have riches here, but what we have waiting on us in heaven, is so much greater! Lets think about your family, your husband/wife, children, parents... they are so valuable, they are true treasures, it's sad than when one is taken from us that we realize then that they meant more to us than we really imagined. We are blessed, we just need to remember how blessed we are, and that what we have can't even compare to what the evil man has.
