We need not feel hurt when people revile us for our devotion to Christ. We only become hurt when we care what others think of us.
When only Christ matters the responses of others roll right off like water off a duck back.
Matthew 5:11-13
11 “Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. 12 Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in this same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you."
Disciples and the World
13 “You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has become tasteless, how ]can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by people."
