In this episode, Girl, Tend to Your Own Grass -, Janique unpacks a powerful commandment: “Do not covet.” From comparing our lives on social media to constantly striving for what looks like success, many of us fall into the trap of wanting what God never meant for us to carry.

Covetousness, while quiet and hidden, can destroy your peace, distort your purpose, and distract you from stewarding what God has already placed in your hands. 

This episode is a loving call to stop reaching for what’s not yours and start cultivating what is because God blesses what’s managed well and what’s done His way.

2. Covetousness distracts you from your assignment
3. You can’t walk in your calling while coveting
