The Rejection Brings Strength in the Lord

I love people and desire friends who love God, but am not willing to compromise my faith to have worldly friends. Praise the Lord, He is all we need.

Having been rejected mostly all of my life, I can say that I praise the Lord that it drove me to Him, causing me to be able to stand alone. If we can see our rejection as a tool to show us the power of God and to reveal the wickedness of man, we are well equipped to resist the wiles of the devil.

Remember Jesus Christ was rejected by most people, the very people He created.

Proverbs 18:24
"24 A man of too many friends comes to ruin,
But there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother."

James 4:6-8 "6 But He gives us more grace. This is why it says: “God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.” 7 Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.…"
