In the above verse, King Hezekiah learned his life was near the end. Filled with bitterness, he called out to God and his bitterness was replaced with wholeness. When you are distressed, look to the Lord and become whole.
Lord, when bitterness consumes me, I will call out to You, the only One who can fill me with Your grace.
