“Where you have been is NOT where you are going”

Bitterness defined is resentment in your life

Through the pain, tears or heartache that caused you strife.

Many people say their identity shows what they do,

Their negative habits and strongholds too.

They cry out to God saying they just can't beat it

Exclaiming they've tried, they just can't reach it.

But Jesus says that all sin is forgiven

If you repent with your heart and truly believe in

The one who was risen and died on the cross

To save you from pain, your sin just got tossed.

So take the forgiveness and bury the bitterness

Exclaim his uniqueness and spread his excellence

Let go of the past that holds you in bondage

Rise up in your faith, embrace the message.

The things that once labeled your face with gloom

That's not who you are or what you should do

But now you have a mindset that believes in you

Accepts you regardless, transitions you through.

Boldly express your makers name, carry his vision

Show up for His game.

Focus your heart, follow His scripture

Shut the door down on judging, the media the twitter

Being you alone, standing firm in God's word

Sparks up mockers to criticize you more

They'll call you a weirdo; they'll misuse your name

Stop inviting you to functions and say you're insane

There is no truth in the things people say

They have to account for the game they played.

So walk boldly in God's word and remember the true picture

This world wants God without all the stricture

Live out your life believe in your destiny

Spread His word openly and extend His legacy

Speak His name bravely spreading His grace

Forgiving all haters, stay fixated on His face

When you focus on God and let them do what they do

God becomes brighter

The haters only fade in the rearview.
