I have wanted to read How to be Free From Bitterness for some time. I even printed it off last week, but finally read it just last night. It is wonderful. It takes about 10 minutes to read and is worth every bit. Here are a few little excerpts:
~~~~~~
Guilt is what we feel when we sin, and bitterness is what we feel when others sin against us.
Bitterness is always based upon someone else's sin--whether real or imagined.
It is not concerned with how big the sin is; it is based upon how close it is....Bitterness is related to those people who are close.
The bible does not grant anyone the right to be bitter. The text says to get rid of all bitterness (Ephesians 4:31)
Bitterness remembers details...Memory is helped by review, review, and more review.
But suppose he does not quit? Suppose he never quits? Are you going to be bitter the rest of your life because someone else insists on being in sin?
~~~~~~~~~~
What can you do if you are bitter? Read on to find help.
