bitterness and forgiveness

bitterness....
....grows bigger. No matter how small it begins, it takes over your heart.
......make you obsess endlessly.
.....is a jail where you are the guard...and the prisoner.
......keeps you from enjoying the goodness of God.
......created ugly frown lines in your beautiful face.
......turns you into someone everyone tries to avoid.

Forgiveness....
..... allows you to move ahead in your life.
......is possible when you realize the forgivness you have been granted.
......is the key that frees you from jail.
......keeps no records of wrongs.
......frees me to enjoy all the good things God has for me.
......means I can stop thinking about it and let go.
