The Two Silent Thieves — Genesis 37:4; 1 Samuel 18:8 — Nov 19, 2025

Envy and jealousy are the two silent thieves—but gratitude restores your joy.

Envy and jealousy slip into the heart quietly—stealing peace, clouding joy, and turning love into comparison.

But when we choose gratitude, everything changes. Gratitude opens our eyes to what God has done, reminding us that His blessings are never in short supply.

In today’s 5-Minute Daily Devotional, we reflect on Genesis 37:4 and 1 Samuel 18:8 (NIV), where envy consumed both Joseph’s brothers and King Saul. These stories remind us that jealousy robs peace, damages relationships, and blocks what God wants to give.

When we celebrate others and stay thankful for what God has already done, we prove to Him that we can handle more. Gratitude opens our hands; envy closes them.
