God calls Himself JEALOUS! (Exodus 20:5). The jealousy
that is healthy is the one that is careful/watchful. As wives, I believe it is
healthy to watch our husbands' friendships/relationships. If any of them is
crossing boundaries, we should take corrective action - prayers, raising it
with him RESPECTFULLY, talking about it with someone he respects etc.
The ugly side of jealousy is envy and I'm sure I don't
need to dwell on that.
Also, remember that we're told that the virtuous woman
watches over the affairs of her household (including her husband's). Just make
sure you're not monitoring based on fear.
May the Lord bless and keep our homes, in Jesus' Name.
Amen.
