Bible Question: Can someone tell me how to get bitterness out of my heart? I've prayed and asked God but it is still there. Can someone help please. |
Bible Answer: In Genesis 33:1-11 we see Esau's change of heart when the two brothers meet again. The bitterness over losing his birthright and blessing (Genesis 25:29-34) seems gone. Instead Esau is content with what he has. Jacob even exclaims how great it is to see his brother obviously pleased with him (Genesis 33:10). Life can deal us some bad situations. We can feel cheated, as Esau did, but we don't have to remain bitter. We can remove bitterness from our lives by honestly expressing our feelings to God, forgiving those who have wronged us, and being content with what we have. |
