Song of Solomon 8:6 informs us about two emotions, one of which some may think young people exclusively experience. They are love and jealousy. This verse tells us love is as strong as death and jealousy is fierce as the grave.
Jealousy is not something restricted to the young. Anytime I am envious that someone got some attention or recognition I didn’t, it’s jealousy. When I feel ungrateful when a friend can travel all around the world at any time, and when I work just as hard as others but can’t afford something and resent it, it’s jealousy.
Jealousy does not only apply to the young. Beware of it.
