Jealous of the Hope that youth affords
Jealous of Perspective that travel rewards
Jealous of the Trust of a little child
Jealous of the Zeal of a Patriot riled
Spoiled by the Riches of this life
Spoiled in a land without war or strife
Spoiled by receiving all that I need
Spoiled by the lack of the hunger I feed
Jealous of those miraculously healed
Jealous of Wisdom long life reveals
Jealous of entering His Kingdom today
Jealous of clearly pointing the way
Spoiled by The Message lost in the sound
Spoiled by the presence of loved-ones around
Spoiled by my books and Bibles piled high
Spoiled by the Knowledge that I am His child
Be jealous only of a relationship with God through the Spirit of God, Be spoiled only by His Love.
“Or do you suppose that the Scripture is speaking to no purpose that says The Spirit Whom He (God) has caused to dwell in us yearns over us and He (God) yearns for the Spirit [to be welcome] with a jealous love?” James 4:5 AMP
