REJECTION

Rejection is never pretty. No one likes it. In the book, Where Is God!? Blessed Are The Pure In Heart For They Shall See God, it describes how being a Christian is not always pretty and wrapped with a beautiful bow! Sometimes it is hurtful, painful, embarrassing, and humiliating. These are the exact same experiences and feelings Jesus encountered on the Earth. It is how He knows what we go through in life. When we experience the supernatural power of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit as the Lord of our lives, we will in turn be able to identify and know what it is to suffer for Christ’s sake. This is deep because these are the deeper things of God. Our faith is more than a surface faith, but a faith of an intimate relationship with the Trinity. It is also the faith that God promises the abundant, victorious life, too! We should grow through the pain of rejection. There are many treasures to be gained… Look for them! Ask, “Lord, what do you want me to learn from this?!” Don’t waste the pain of rejection. Love & Blessings!

Trusting God In The Process

The image above says a mouthful! Our walk with God is a life long journey with many twists and turns and things we may not understand. The key is to TRUST God! No matter what it looks like, what it feels like, whether we are comfortable or uncomfortable, we are to TRUST God. To have a faith like Stephen where we see him trusting God as he is being stoned to death because of his faith. Or having the faith of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego who stood boldly before King Nebuchadnezzar and refused to bow before him. As a consequence, they were thrown into the fiery furnace. These are wonderful examples of God’s supernatural strength He gives us in the twists and turns of our journey. Sometimes we get stones thrown at us and thrown into the fiery furnace of life designed to destroy our faith. However, no matter what happens in life, TRUST that God does know what He is doing in our lives. We don’t have to try and figure everything out… That is one of Satan’s traps. We just TRUST God in the process and He will lead and guide us where He wants us to be! Love & Blessings!

Wishy Washy

Don’t be wishy washy with God. He wants our hearts and deserves our commitment and dedication to Him. In the book, Where Is God!? Blessed Are The Pure In Heart For They Shall See God, page 10 talks about how we should be reflecting Christ to others with our lives. We do this by crucifying our flesh daily. It is not always easy because that crucifixion of the flesh hurts. Our egos can’t take it! But, the more we yield the more it becomes easier for us to do things God’s way and not our way… Remember God is our help and he gives us supernatural strength to do the things He has asked us to do. Because we LOVE Him we want to give Him our all… Don’t be wishy washy with God. Love & Blessings!
