Marlon De La Torre on Resentful Attitudes and One's Relationship to Jesus

". . . A joyful path requires that a person dispel and remove anything that may hinder his relationship with Christ. This act of faith challenges the person to engage the world not through a humanistic lens but through the lens of faith revealed by God through His Son Jesus Christ. The journey toward experiencing the eternal gift of joy with God requires that we choose to live a virtue-driven life. . . . the sin of resentment directly challenges the desire for heavenly joy which can be further defined as coveting which would go against the ninth and tenth commandments, being ungrateful for what you have, or putting on a false face toward someone because you resent who they are or what they represent."
