Change the Channel. Unsubscribe to the bitterness station.

How many times have you seen something horrendous on television that made you immediately change the station? Sometimes you need to go through so many channels, before you can find the right station that will allow you to forget the troubling image you just seen. There's a strong psychological lesson to be learn here.
In life we have two proverbial networks at our disposal; the network of fear and the network of faith.

Mark 4:40
And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?
1 John 4:18
There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.

In Mark, we clearly see the diametric relationship between fear and faith. One reigns while the other is trampled on. Both fear and faith carries many traits but for today I will just speak of bitterness and gratitude.

Hebrews 12:15
Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled;
Ephesians 5:20
Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;

Bitterness and Gratitude
Bitterness is define in the web as "a feeling of antagonism, hostility, or resentfulness."
Gratitude is define in the web as "the quality of being thankful; readiness to show appreciation for and to return kindness."

When one is completely immersed by bitterness, one is unable or has trouble in rising above their proverbial dark cloud to see the Son-light. Similarly, when one is living in gratitude, one dwells in thankfulness. They don't dwell on the negativities. Emphasis on dwell, as in resides or stays in bitterness.

We should place a valiant effort in 'changing the bitterness channel' whenever we hold resentfulness. There's more and more things for us to be thankful about. Write them down if you have to and thank our Lord for them. Yes it may not be easy at first, but I'm personally discovering that the channels from the so-called Fear Network are fewer and fewer.

Change your channel. Don't subscribe to the bitterness channel.

Thank You Father! Thank you friends for reading.

Maybe you should tune back into the channel showing your government's crimes against 'the least of the Brethren', and do your duty:

Hell is hot enough as it is.

Do you do your duty on your government's crimes?

It's too bad you don't read my status on a regular basis. You would not have asked that question in the first place. But that is okay Mischa, not everyone as the time. I will not invest my time in bitterness. One can be proactive and not live in bitterness. This blog is about living in bitterness. We need to stay on topic. However, if you want to talk about the evil of governments, write a blog and I will join in. My profile updates covers plenty.

The topic you raised was avoiding 'troubling images', which you see as living in bitterness.
A rule of thumb is that if you can't watch it, then children can't take being exposed to it.

I have seen plenty of your posts, you have never posted any hard facts, documentation or law.
What you post is what CIA assets posts. I resent that kind of twisting of Christianity.

You remind of Nudias. Remember him. You even changed your name to “Brother of Christ”. He was a Jehovah’s Witnesses. I’m standing with Mischa, you just think the sources you state on your profile as true.

So what exactly are you disagreeing with?

 

[Brother in Christ (JC)]

I'm not here to convince you or anyone of anything. It is your call. I do my research what about you?

On the other hand, I;m not a masochist, so I don't feel in a celebratory mood when things consistently go wrong,...especialy over a long period of time...

 

[Brother in Christ (JC)]

You are exactly like Nudias. I won’t be surprised if you two are the same person with mere lies with no good evidence. For conspiracy theories have Weak evidence.

Are you Nudias? You are displaying plenty of bitterness just like Nudias. Nudias left the time you came on this site. You are both from UK. As for me, I have been here a long time. This blog is about people not to dwell on bitterness. Why are bitter Nudias?
