Jealousy, like all enemies to our heart, stem from the root cause of our now getting what we want. Jealousy, specifically, comes from our not having what someone else has. The key to uprooting jealousy is admitting that we need to be going to God with our needs and wants, rather than coveting what others have. The habits of celebrating what others have that we would like and being thankful to God for what He has already given us will finish the work of keeping jealousy from disrupting the rhythm of our heart.
