That means, a person who is greedy will covet something even if he does not really need it. He will hide it for some ...read more

    An attitude of envy can be a destructive force in any life. Envy is a serious danger, for it can make us unclean & unspiritual & rob us of our salvation. It is not a desirable trait to have in our lives.

    ENVY is called a “green-eyed-monster” and can be defined as a resentful emotion which "occurs when a person lacks another’s (perceived) superior quality, achievement or possession and wishes that the other lacked it." Oh, but God’s love overcomes all.
