As believers, we know that envy (as well as its close cousin, jealousy) and its resulting behaviors are not the work of the Holy Spirit but rather are rooted in works of the flesh.

For some, it may seem shocking for one ever to be done with Jesus. Yet I suspect we could all name examples of someone we know who once followed Jesus but due to wounds inflicted by the world, by family, and even by other believers, chose to be done with Jesus.

There is much to think about this Holy Week. Today I am struck by the conversation of Jesus with Pilate.
