   Bitterness

Don't let bitterness take over your heart.

Nothing robs the Christians life of joy and peace of mind quicker than
bitterness in the heart. It becomes a wall, not only between us and the
other person, but between us and the Lord. And if we let bitterness will
destroy us. Even when someone else has truly wronged us, we are to allow
Jesus' forgiving Spirit to flow through us toward them. 
It's not the attitude that people have toward you that controls your
life; its your Christ like attitude toward them that keeps you free from
bitterness and causes your love to keep on serving God.
Keep your heart free. I have had to pray hard to God to keep my heart
free  of bitterness when my Ex husband walked out after 32 yrs of marriage.
 ( He thought  the grass was greener).

Ephesians 4:31
Let all bitterness, and wrath and anger, and calmour, and evil speaking,
be put away from you, with all malice.

Love/Prayers
