What should you do if you feel bitter? Cry. Eat. Pray. That may not sound very spiritual. But, we all know that crying and eating helps! 😊
“In bitterness of soul, Hannah wept much and prayed to the Lord….She ate something…..Early the next morning she worshiped before the Lord.” 1 Samuel 1:10-19
I don’t know fully what “bitterness of soul” means. But I think I think I get there sometimes. And when I do, I feel like crying and eating! I don’t know how helpful the crying and eating are, but I love that scripture is honest and real. Hannah cried, prayed, ate, and worshiped. And God met her there. You can be honest with Him. Cry it out. Eat something. Pray and worship it out. He will meet you in your bitter places of the soul as well. – Sandi
