How many times have you heard a Christian brother or sister tell you that when you share your faith with someone and they reject it, they are not rejecting you. They are rejecting Jesus. It is reasoned out this way so you don't feel bad about yourself. The idea that you are not rejected seems contrary to what is taught by Jesus. It appears you, Jesus and God are being rejected.
"The one who listens to you, listens to me. The one who rejects you, rejects me. And rejecting me is the same as rejecting God, who sent me."~Jesus
So when you feel the pain of rejection, accept it. Embrace it. Know that Jesus and God suffer with you in the pain. Be encouraged by it. Know that God is real in your life and you are discovering the pain found in obedience. God loves you and will meet you in your darkest hours. For in the darkness, His light illuminates the world through you.
Consider your pain a badge of honor. Wear it proudly. God bless and "Go. Take on the Day!"~Dr.Laura
