Letting go of Bitterness

Ephesians 4:31

Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander along with every form of malice.


Jesus taught the law of forgiveness in the Gospels of Matthew (6:14-15; 18:35) and Mark (11:25)and we also see it in the Lord's Prayer: "Forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us"


God forgives us, not because we forgive others but because of his great mercy. Those who are unwilling to forgive have not become one with Christ, who was willing to forgive even those who crucified him (Luke 23:34)

As we come to understand his mercy we will want to become more like him. Because Jesus forgave us, our forgiving attitude toward others should stand out in striking contrast to the unforgiving spirit shown by most of the world.

Look at the sacrifice Christ made for us, look at the torture and pain he went through for our sin and he forgave us. By choice he forgave us, if he can forgive us then we should show the same grace and mercy to others that he has shown us. When you make the choice to let go of bitterness and forgive, it is like waking up to a brand new life and you will be amazed by how you feel!
