To anyone who feels bitter after praying for years

I used to call it patience. But over time, patience quietly turned into bitterness. That’s when the story of Naomi stopped feeling distant. She doesn’t hide her bitterness. She renames herself Mara. In Hebrew, the word means more than sad—it means life has turned against me. The Bible never corrects her for that honesty. It lets her bitterness speak before restoration ever arrives. If bitterness has crept into your prayers, Scripture doesn’t tell you to swallow it. It shows you someone who carried it openly—and was still part of God’s story. #Bitterness #Naomi #FaithAfterLoss #BiblicalHonesty #EmotionalHealing
