Rejection
✝️🙏🏿✝️ There is none holy as the Lord: for there is none beside thee: neither is there any rock like our God. (‭1 Samuel‬ ‭2‬:‭2‬ KJV)  One of the toughest life losses to experience is that of rejection. Rejection is very painful. The fact of the matter is we all want to be loved and accepted yet, it doesn't always happen. Many times, it is not even your fault when you are rejected. The thing is  people make choices here is a few: Spouses choose to leave or reject their mate. Parents choose to reject or abandon their children; A parent makes it impossible for a child to please them so the child never receives their parent's blessing; Parents and their children, and families, choose to mistreat each other; Stepparents choose to reject or mistreat their stepchildren; Stepchildren choose to reject or mistreat their stepparents; In-laws choose to reject or mistreat their son or daughter-in-law; Son-in-laws or daughter-in-laws choose to reject or mistreat their spouse's parents.              Families go through deep rejection and conflict like after the death of a family member. In the work place Bosses/coworkers choose to reject someone in their office; At school, kids are rejected or mistreated by their peers; Sadly Even at church, some are rejected or mistreated by others. Any of this seem familiar.
            Well listen to this. Multitudes followed Him as He healed the sick raised the dead and did miracles signs and wonders! One day they hailed and applauded Him as Lord of Lords, Hosana in the Highest. The next they were accusing Him, beating Him, spitting on Him , ridiculing Him, turning their backs on Him, denying Him then ultimately crucifying Him! This was and is the ultimate rejection. The rejection of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ!!!
        Listen because we live in a broken world of broken relationships sadly rejection and abandonment are common. It shouldn't be but it is. When rejection or abandonment takes place, it can pierce your heart in a way you’ve never felt before. It can be easy to allow an event of rejection or abandonment to permanently define you it can make you feel as though you are
inferior, broken, unlovable, and damaged. There are many today who are among us today that are injured by rejection. I need you to realize that you are a treasure!! God made you and planned for you! Amen!!
        “For the Lord will not cast off his people, neither will he forsake his inheritance.” Psalms‬ ‭94:14‬ ‭KJV‬‬
We must understand we are NOT inferior, you can be whole. God wants to make you whole you are Lovable, Valuable, and Loved! Listen If you have been rejected or abandoned, I highly encourage you to take a moment to pour your deepest heartaches out to God  draw close to God and enjoy His love.
       Right now no matter where you are use this special time to grow closer to God and allow Him to pour into your heart! Ask Him to reveal His plan and goals for your life. God has a HUGE heart for anyone who has been rejected or abandoned. As a Matter of fact, He has many scripture verses about it in His Word. When people reject you they are ultimately rejecting the One who created you.
        God will NEVER leave you or abandon you and His heart absolutely breaks when someone chose to leave, abandon, mistreat, or reject you. We are in God's great heart. He is a safe haven we can trust. He loves and adores us greatly!  It’s not easy but speaking from experience we who have been deeply hurt have an incredible ability to unconditionally love others. We possess a compassion that is stronger than most. That’s because of Jesus. Even as He hung on that cross He asked the Father to forgive them for they know not what they do! Jesus can take your life experiences and hurts and make them into something of great value for The Fathers Kingdom.
         Though I’ve experienced the hurt of rejection. I had to ask God to heal my heart and my hurts. To work in my life, reveal His plans for me, and to make His love come to life in me. Listen you to have great worth, great value, and a great purpose. Please never doubt that. We are God's children chosen by Him. Daily build your identity not from how others treat you or what others think about you, but build your identity and life on what God says about you.
      There are many unavoidable challenges and trials in life, and we will inevitably have to go through pain and suffering. But with God’s reassuring arms wrapped around us, we’ll be able to bear our crises, crosses and circumstances, and let Him strengthen our faith as we grow through them. Psalm 91 speaks of the comforting presence and power of God that gives us the strength to face our trials. Knowing that we can rest in His powerful arms gives us great assurance, as does His promise to those who love Him: He will call on me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble.
       Read Psalm 139 today to realize just how wonderful you truly are! Lord Jesus, thank You for Your reassuring presence in my circumstances and my life. Please help me and fellow believers through them, knowing that You’re always with us Amen✝️🙏🏿✝️
