The great expectations by #CharlesDickson'
Bitterness is gotten from the Greek work pigrous meaning a sharp,harsh,piercing and stinging object.
Causes:
*It destroys our life status
*It Mar's God's blessings
The lack of forgiveness causes bitterness to grow bit by bit; according to (2samuel 13 vs 1) down; (15 vs 12; 16-23; 23 vs 34; 11 vs 3-4;). This story breaks down d history of bitterness.
That's why Jesus Christ taught us to love one another as ourselves and the teachings of the lords prayer.
*It destroys marriages
*It hinders God's will and blessings
Bitterness is the basis for broken family regardless of the generation it occurred.
According To Newton's law, 'To every action there is an equal and opposite reaction', this law affects all humans. That's why we turn out being affected by the burden we lock in our hearts.
All this are d roots of bitterness;
Unforgiveness, hatred, lack of love, contentment and generosity.etc. From all this bitterness grow and hinders the blessings of God.
To summarize it all, we should be in peace with everyone and practice what David the psalmist wrote in (psalm 1 vs 1 to 3) and weigh our life in this balance seeing the end of bitterness in (2 Samuel 17 vs 14).
LIFE IS PEACEFUL WHEN WE FORGIVE.
