Do you remember when she caught your boyfriends eye or when he caught your girlfriends eye? Maybe someone had the "newest thing" and you didn't have one. For us the emotion of jealousy is always in a negative context, that Green eyed monster. Not so with God...how often have you provoked God to jealousy because something else caught your eye and you went running after it leaving the one who gave His life for you on the sideline. God is absolutely holy in His righteous jealousy. He desires nothing more than our complete attention.
Deuteronomy 4:24 ESV
For the Lord your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God.
