Leave the Pining Alone

Do not waste time pining away for those who have rejected you. It is natural to grieve for a time over lost relationships, just as Christ wept over Jerusalem because they rejected Him, but then there is a time for moving on, nurturing and enjoying the relationships you do have that share your joy in the Lord.

We can agonize all day long about those who have contempt for us, while neglecting those relationships that would be sweet and endearing.

How about we leave behind those that hinder our walk with Christ and turn to those who walk on the same path with us.

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

A part of accepting God's will is letting go of the relationships that do not look to Christ in all matters.
