We sang a song last week - How He Loves us. The opening line starts…He is jealous for me. The song has been stuck in my head for a couple weeks. Ever since Jackson, Nate and I were practicing together and especially after last week. Perhaps that’s why as I was in my own study as well as our chronological reading that I may have noticed how our God is a jealous God. 

“Jealousy” sounds negative to many of us—but in the Bible, God’s jealousy is not petty or insecure. It’s a holy, passionate love that refuses to share us with anything false or harmful.

God's jealousy isn’t about control—it’s about commitment. He created us, loves us, and desires relationship with us. When we run to idols—anything we trust more than Him—it’s not just sin; it’s spiritual adultery.

Opening Thought:

“What we turn to in our fear, pain, or hope—that’s what we truly worship.”
