He is jealous for me.

So today I was thinking, you know when you get jealous when a friend spends more time with another friend than they do with you? Or your parents may give your sibling more attention than they give to you? I know sometimes I get very jealous. During bible study tonight we read a verse from Exodus 20: 4-6 "You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.You shall not bow down to them or serve them, for I the LORD your God am a JEALOUS God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and the fourth generation of those who hate me, but showing STEADFAST LOVE to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments." God's jealousy is sooooooo much more greater for us than the stupid things that we can get jealous over. He is jealous of how we spend our time. He is jealous when we give more attention to other things in our lives, over him; THE CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE!! He gave us his law because he loves us. Not to fence us in, but because he loves us and he knows us better than we know ourselves. He wants to meet all of our needs and desires. When we want to be heard, he is there to listen. When we need someone to love us, only he can give us the pure, perfect, unfailing love we need. When we feel like we don't amount to anything in this life, he sees us a treasure! God loves us so much and all he asks is that we love him too.
