Rejection is part of life. There was no one more rejected than Jesus. In fact, many of us are in positions, like Jesus, that make us targets for rejection and disapproval. How do you handle it? Do you point fingers and blame? Do you withdraw and sink into the background? When you feel "less than", are you shaken? Do you feel trampled on by others? No matter how much you were rejected, ignored, or mistreated, you have the ability for a "reset" and a "do-over"! God shows us how to achieve the renewal of our minds...but we must do the do. It takes daily, intentional effort. When we feel that feeling of "less than" from our past, we must see it as another signal coming from God's lane departure warning system. We are out of alignment with His word. Seek Him. It is the hardest work you will ever do, but it is the most rewarding.
