The Blessing of Rejection

One thing I sure can start this post with is that, do not ever be afraid to be rejected by people, anyone. There people that will say you do not measure up. But what God says about you is more important than what anyone will ever say, Peter, yes you know him, the apostle that rejected the Lord 3times, says in his  first epistle that God chooses what man rejects (1Peter 2:4-7)

Its not the end of the world when someone rejects you. One thing I have learnt is that something often happens on the inside of us when someone, especially the people we love reject us. I know the first thing the enemy will whisper to you is to retaliate,  but sweetie,  we all know that is deadly, some of you choose to hide into a cave. None of those two ways is a solution. Sometimes God will shut some doors inorder to redirect us into His very best for us so dont be afraid of rejection, its always a blessing, hand it over to God and allow Him to use it for a greater purpose, Paul says in Romans 8:28 "we know that in all things God works for good of those who love Him, those whom He has called according to His purpose.

What rejection have you experienced, or are experiencing that you do not want to handover to God. Did the man that promised you, that you will always be in his life no matter what and believed would be your future husband leave you for someone else, did your bestfriend throw you out, a promotion at work that always passes you by even when your the most qualified, whatever it is, there is no tragedy that you have suffered that God cannot make something good out of it.

Pain happens to all of us, if you've suffered it, just keep moving,  allow to suffer it, if you haven't,  its coming.  But the beauty is that it's in the pain that we grow, surviving it helps you help others. Rejection and the pain that comes with it is important, you need it, accept it, most people loose their destiny in the pain. So accept and allow God to use it for a greater purpose.  Remember, there's just one redeemer, our Lord Jesus,  allow Him to do what only He can, redeem, the greatest rejection in your life can become the building block on which God does what He wants to do through you.

I know it is difficult to give all you had to something or someone and it wasn't enough. All you can do now is to handover the pain to God, it can be the building stone God uses to your destiny. If you know who you're in Christ,  that your steps are ordered by the Lord, then there's nothing any one can do to stop you. Allow that stone that the builders rejected be the cornerstone for your destiny.

Thank God for everything that you didn't get, let God give you the ability to trust Him with everything in your hand. Dive yourself into God's word and allow it to turn  your weakness into your strength.
