ROOT OF BITTERNESS

DAILY GRACE FRI. 8TH DEC, 2017 ROOT OF BITTERNESS HEBREWS 12:15 "Looking carefully lest anyone fall short of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up cause trouble, and by this many become defiled." Many times l often heard people say, "I resent that." But I repeat: I have never heard the word used by a victorious man. Resentment simply cannot dwell in a loving and caring heart. Before resentfulness can set into your heart, love must take its flight and the root of bitterness take over. The bitter soul will compile a list of slights at which it takes offense and will watch over itself like a mother bear over her cubs. The resentful heart is always surly and suspicious and such heart is often filled with the root of bitterness. Any believer in Christ with the root of bitterness has never accepted the way of the cross. The sweet graces of meekness and humility are unknown to such fellow. In fact, he/she grows every day harder and more acrimonious as he defends his root of bitterness, his reputation, his rights against his imagined or perceived foes. Friend, the only cure for this sort of thing that may constitute root of bitterness in your life is to die to self and rise with Christ into newness of life of the God of all grace. Enjoy your day!
