Bitterness & Unforgiveness


Are you carrying bitterness & unforgiveness?

Ephesians 4:31 NIV
" Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander, along with every form of malice." 

Bitterness & unforgiveness can eat us alive.  Forgiveness is not for the person you are upset with or mad at.  It's for you to walk in & live peaceful.  Forgiveness is not letting the person who caused you pain the free pass to cause you more pain in the future. Each person is accountable for their actions & words.

 Colossians 3:13 [Full Chapter] NIV


"Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you."

Bitterness & unforgiveness can cause our filter of information coming in & going out to be tainted.  Once we clean out the bitterness & forgive, we will have a new view on how we filter information.  Then other people interactions with us will be completely different.   The new filter will be like new eyes.

Keeping our heart pure from bitterness & unforgiveness helps keep our relationship circuits running in our heads.   With the relationship circuits running, we can communicate better with each other.
