keep your burden light

The sin of another against you is not justification for your sin. Cling to God, seek peace and rebuke all bitterness that comes up in you (as constant, overwhelming and understandable as it seems). It will just add to your burden, and put a wedge between you and the God who wants to comfort you and use you within your circumstances. Your life is a ministry, even when it is in shambles.

You have no part or share in this ministry, because your heart is not right before God. Repent of this wickedness and pray to the Lord. Perhaps he will forgive you for having such a thought in your heart. For I see that you are full of bitterness and captive to sin.

Acts 8:21-23
