Bitterness
Alberto González MuñozOne of the greatest tragedies that can occur in someone's life is that their heart is filled with bitterness. When we lock ourselves in the exclusive contemplation of our problems and frustrations, without wanting to do so, we inevitably build an insurmountable wall that does more harm, precisely, to ourselves. The worst thing is that no one is safe from the possibility of becoming bitter. Unlike what many people believe, bitterness does not depend on the external situations that assail us but on the attitude with which we face the dissimilar events that surround us.
In Psalm 73 the writer is dedicated to looking at the events around him and his analysis begins to be disturbing. In the same way that it happens to us, he sees that those who least deserve it often more than achieve the desires of their heart. Pride and arrogance seem to bear good fruit in this world, at least apparently.
