You Shall Not Covet

[Sung Psalm: 131]

What do you covet? Do you look at your neighbor's house, and desire it? Do you look at your neighbor's wife, and desire her?

Or is your coveting of a different sort? Do you desire status? Do you long for the praise of others? Do you look at others and wish that you had their position? their gifts? their abilities?

Whatever you covet, God calls you to repent. And he calls you to contentment. Are you content with what God has set before you to do? It may be a small place. But you may be content in a small place, being faithful in that which Christ has given you to do...
