Well no one really likes to admit they are struggling with this particular sin, it is a subject worth discussing--which is what the writers over at girltalk have been doing. They're running a convicting and encouraging series right now all about envy--why it's wrong, why it hurts you, and how to get your eyes off your neighbor and back onto how good God is to you.
I have long been a fan of Carolyn Mahaney, and girltalk is the blog she co-authors with her three lovely daughters. It's a website I check in on regularly. I hope you find some encouragement there, as I have.
