Feels | Talk 5: Jealousy
WE are now in Talk 5 of our Feast Talk series for May 2024, titled FEEL: Why Your Emotions Matter. The goal of our 5-part teaching series is: To learn how to lead your emotions better so that you can love God, love others, and love yourself more.
We already tackled four talks: Talk 1 about Shame; Talk 2 Fear; Talk 3: Anger, and Talk 4: Sadness.
The topic of Talk 5 is Jealousy.
Jealousy is not just that nervous feeling when we see our romantic partner get attracted to someone else. It’s broader than that. Jealousy is that uncomfortable feeling of seeing someone have something you want but don’t have.
It may be a bad feeling. But like the other emotions we have studied, Jealousy brings us special gifts.
The key message of Talk 5 is Entrust your desires to God.
