It may be his farm is larger and the soil richer, than yours. It may be he got more votes for sheriff than you did. It may be his store is larger than yours and he has more trade than you have. There are many things that excite envy. You say you are a preacher I see! Now that is suggestive. Perhaps the preacher you are envious of is in some way your superior. His church is better located than yours, his congregation larger, his salary more, or, he is a more attractive man. You feel you can hardly keep up with him. Are these the facts? Is this what you are growling about? Are you eyeing this brother? Have you a little feeling that you would like for his foot to slip. Be careful, my brother, you are on dangerous ground. E. M.

5 435 THE.COMMUNITY CHURCH NEWS PRESTONE We Have It MARHOFER CHEVROLET WA-1823 ST0W,0. Envy is a very dangerous thing, my brother. It is a sociable sin; it likes company. It never goes about alone. It soon falls in with hatred and falsehood, and in the end, will call in counsel, and plan with murder. It may never strike the fatal blow and shed actual blood, but Jesus taught us that murder is an attitude of mind and heart; that to hate a brother, is to be a murderer. You say this man of whom you are envious, whose place you could fill so much better than he, and you feel it would be so much better for the cause if you had his place, that he is quite unfit for it; that he is going to soon break down with nervous prostration. You put on a sad look and say, "He cannot possibly last long, and then!" My brother, a prophet always wants his prophecies to come true; so having uttered your prophecy you begin to hope to see him fail. He is in your way. You feel he is very stupid not to understand that he is a cumberer of the ground. Say, brother, you are in danger of becoming impatient with God, because he does not cut him down. Your envy grows. You eye your man like Saul did David, and what a look! It is snaky. Your eyes become daggers. They grow to pierce and gleam with green hatred. You say, "He will soon die. He cannot possibly live long, and then I'll." And now my poor, envious brother, you begin to hope he will die. How your heart would thrill if you heard he was dead! and if you should, you would put on a false face, attend the funeral, and sham great sorrow. You would make a first-class mourner. If you were to get his place, you must win his friends with your apparent grief. You become a little amused and delighted with your shrewd diplomacy. My envious brother, let me tell you this. When you prophesy that your neighbor farmer is going to die, and that you will be able to buy his farm from his widow to advantage, or if it is a store, a bank, a church, or whatsoever you are going to get when he is gone, and you prophesy he will soon be gone, and you STOW FENDER & BODY REPAIR FORMERLY DONALD DUCK PAINT SHOP Anything from touch-up to a complete refinishing job.

Envy is one of the most common sins, and one of the most dangerous. It should be guarded against with prayerful care. To pray earnestly for the brother that you are tempted to envy and be jealous of, will be helpful to the soul. By Rev. H. C.
