Hey Y’all! This week is the topic of resentment and how just like anger can cause true destruction and harm to others in our lives but also ourselves. I explain the different ways resentment can take a hold on your life and as well as what the Bible says about how we should handle it!
Scriptures I referenced:
Job 5:2 (NIV): “Resentment kills a fool, and envy slays the simple.”
Ephesians 4:31-32 (NKJV): “Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all malice. And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.”
Leviticus 19:18 (NIV and NKJV): “Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against anyone among your people, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the Lord.”
NKJV: “You shall not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of your people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself: I am the Lord.”
