Recently a began praying that God would show me my sins more so I can understand his grace more. I have always heard not to develop a root of bitterness. However, somehow I have developed anger that I hold in (aka:bitterness). I realized that this problem stemmed from the fact that I put up this nice facade and don't voice how I feel or my opinion and therefore, end up letting people walk all over me. Don't get me wrong, at times I have no problem talking about problems behind peoples backs. I just can't tell them face to face. Why? When I am passionate or angry about something I get emotional and cry, and Satan has uses that knot in my throat to keep me from talking about issues that need to be brought up. So, did you catch all that baggage/ sin.
A new great friend of mine (counseling major, that God placed in my life) helped me to see these issues at hand and the freedom of being real. Oh, how I need HIM! I need him to help me get rid of this root and speak up. In what ways do you need God's grace?
