King of all creation, who owns the cattle on every hill, teach us to rejoice with those you have received from you, that we might not grow envious of the gifts you give to others, but would trust your wisdom and generosity, through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives with you and the Holy Spirit in perpetual light, world without end. Amen. ‘Am I not allowed to do what I choose with what belongs to me? Or are you envious because I am generous?’ – Matthew 20:15
