Sealed in Christ 
As a Christian, it’s important to remember that bitterness can be corrosive to the soul and relationships. Hebrews 12:15 warns, “See to it that no one falls short of the grace of God and that no bitter root grows up to cause trouble and defile many.” Bitterness often spreads, affecting not just the individual but those around them. Christians are encouraged to forgive and seek peace, following the example of Christ.

Definitely true. Bitterness shows in our face, actions, and speech. Unforgiveness hurts the one hurt more than the one who inflicted the hurt.

You’re exactly right. It not only hurts us more, it hurts those around us as we act and respond out of our bitterness. Thanks for stopping by! 🙂
