Contagious | Crosstraining 3.5.13

Hebrews 12:14-15 Have you ever had someone blow something way out of proportion on you? It may have been something small you did (or didn’t do), something you didn’t even realize you said, or something they took wrong you posted online? it wasn’t a big deal, but, all the sudden, it was? That’s how bitterness can be in your life. It starts out as just something you are upset about or a simple misunderstanding, but it can turn into something that controls you. it isn’t a big deal, until it is. Most of us wouldn’t call ourselves bitter people, but we wouldn’t necessarily call ourselves forgiving either. Bitterness in our self is deceitful because many times we don’t see the bitterness. We just think we are upset or holding on to a meaningless grudge. Bitterness starts out small and grows until it controls us and, possibly, ruin our life. Don’t allow something small that gets to you grow into something that will ruin you. Forgive instead of seeking revenge. READ THROUGH THE NEW TESTAMENT Today’s Reading: Acts 21]]>
