Dig It Out

Anyone who has taken Chinese herbal medicine knows something about bitter roots!! And if you’ve ever had a lawn, you know about the need to dig out the whole root of noxious weeds. The symbolism is simple: holding on to bitterness and resentment – i.e. holding a grudge – will destroy yourself and others. Don’t let it grow. Dig it out; destroy it.

“Dear Lord, I confess there are at least a few seeds of bitterness in my life. Help me dig them out, and forgive those involved. Don’t let those seeds grow into dangerous, long, ugly, bitter roots that hurt everyone around me. In Jesus’s name. Amen.”
