00:00:06,500 --> 00:00:09,700
Opportunities to be frustrated will come 
and go.

2
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:17,400
It’s our job to ensure small annoyances and 
irritations with others never build to the 
point of bitterness.

3
00:00:17,500 --> 00:00:25,300
Bitterness creates a wedge in relationships 
that is difficult to overcome. As Pastor 
Whit George stated,

4
00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:35,200
“Bitterness is like concrete; when it gets 
hard, it’s very difficult to break it up.” 
Work hard to let frustrations flow through 
you like a river;

5
00:00:35,300 --> 00:00:40,600
a dam of frustrated expectations will eventually 
overflow and burst.

6
00:00:40,700 --> 00:00:48,200
Instead, think about the positive qualities 
of the person you’re frustrated with. As 
Pastor George suggests,

7
00:00:48,300 --> 00:00:56,000
“Thankfulness is the salve to bitterness 
that wants to set into your heart.” I’m Mac
