The Root of Bitterness

Do we want bitterness to be the fragrance coming out of our lives?

If we’re not careful, we can let bitterness defile us. We must take our bitterness to the Lord for help.

“The grace of God never fails any man, but we are constantly failing the grace of God”

Pastor Bob Gray Emmanuel Baptist Church Longview, Texas

“Bitterness can become a constant hum in our lives and spill over into the lives of others around us”

Pastor Bob Gray, Emmanuel Baptist Church Longview, Texas

14 Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:

15 Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled; Hebrews 12:14-15

Sometimes along our journey of life we have to carry something for a short while, but when the trial is over, for some reason we keep carrying…

31 Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice:

32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you. Ephesians 4:31-32
