Jesus was referred to as the stone that the builders rejected. That same

stone became the head of the corner.  In our endeavor to become like Jesus,

we also experience rejection that, if not properly dealt with through God's

Divine Help, can result in our unknowingly growing roots of bitterness and

rejection.  The Lord wants to heal us of any bitterness from our past

because this is an important step in our becoming all that God wants us to

be and fulfilling the mission that God has personally assigned to us.
