A Page For Wives About Bitterness




Do not hold bitterness against your husband. When you do, you plant weeds of anger, confusion and unrighteous judgement which are very difficult to uproot (Hebrews 12:14-15). When you let bitterness take root, you are allowing it to eat away at yourself and the happiness that you should be experiencing with your husband. Don't you want to be happy and light hearted? Doesn't it take so much effort to hold that grudge against him? 
Lastly, bitterness is a blockade to what God wants to do in your husband. He is so preoccupied with "the cold shoulder", "the silent treatment" or that heavy feeling he gets from you ... It makes it very difficult for him to hear from God. Why? The attitude that your bitterness produces is a distraction! (Hmmm, this really puts 1 Peter 3:1 in perspective )
Give your hurt, resentment, disappointment over to Him. Let God work it out of you. Trust Him and trust the work that He is doing in the both of you.

I love you sincerely ...  Lashan
