       Turn with me, or tap, to Job chapter 3 in the Old Testament. I want us to examine a small passage from the Book of Job, in which Job is talking about a person who has become bitter, and some of the characteristics that come along with it. We read in Job chapter 3, starting in verse 20, the following: ““Why is light given to him who is in misery, and life to the bitter in soul, who long for death, but it comes not, and dig for it more than for hidden treasures, who rejoice exceedingly and are glad when they find the grave? Why is light given to a man whose way is hidden, whom God has hedged in?” (Job 3:20-23, ESV). Often when people become bitter about a situation, choosing to have an unforgiving attitude, they will run into seclusion. Now, people do this is different ways. Sometimes people will lock themselves in their house, and not come out much or associate with many people. Sometimes, people will flee to another city or state, trying to get away from the trouble they have caused for themselves. Satan gets people to be bitter at the world.
