Tilly Dillehay examines how envy corrupts joy in seasons of others' success. Witnessing her sisters' stunning musical talent for the first time as a college sophomore, Dillehay faced a complex emotional moment despite having her own musical aspirations. Envy can masquerade as other emotions, even sisterly admiration, yet it poisons authentic joy in others' gifts. Recognizing and rejecting envy allows believers to celebrate God's diverse grace distributed throughout their community. When tempted toward envy over others' talents or success, deliberately choose rejoicing and gratitude for how God distributes His gifts. Scripture: Exodus 34; Psalm 8; Psalm 19; Isaiah 6; Genesis 2 Topics: Envy, Joy, Comparison, Contentment, Community
