HH, Sir Godfrey Gregg D.Div
There are many ways that Christians can be affected by bitterness. Regret, jealousy, and envy can all lead to feelings of bitterness and to an unhappy life. When a person is bitter, their life doesn’t feel worth living. Don’t let that happen to you! Turn to God and try to heal your bitterness.
The Bible is here to help deal with these bitter feelings – there are many Bible verses about bitterness. If you are trying to move past an event or situation in our life that has left you feeling this way, be sure to read these Bible verses on bitterness below.
Although you might not think that this will help at first – believe in yourself and in God. Accept that reading the Bible and praying can help you in your times of trouble. Praying to God and working past your problems can help heal the bitter feelings in your life.
