📱 Why Does Their Life Look Better Than Mine?!
We’ve all been there. You’re scrolling on social media, and BAM—someone else is buying a house, getting married, or going on a cruise with glittery shrimp and coconut drinks. Meanwhile, you’re eating leftovers and praying for your light bill.
You start comparing. And it steals your joy.

📖 Bible Story Example – Cain’s Jealousy Took a Life
In Genesis 4, Cain got jealous of his brother Abel because God accepted Abel’s offering with favor. Instead of checking his heart, Cain got bitter and took Abel’s life. Y’all… that’s next-level petty and tragic.
God warned Cain first, saying, “Sin is crouching at your door.” But Cain didn’t listen—and it led to disaster.
🌍 Real World Example – Keisha vs. the Cruise Life
Keisha saw her coworker post pictures from Greece. Meanwhile, she was working double shifts and dealing with kids, bills, and burnt toast. She got in her feelings… hard.
But then she remembered how far God brought her—out of debt, into peace, and surrounded by love. She turned off her phone, lit a candle, and praised God in the living room. Joy restored.
💡 Takeaway Thought:
Envy starves your soul—gratitude grows your joy.
