Matthew 5:10
“You’re blessed when your commitment to God provokes persecution. The persecution drives you even deeper into God’s Kingdom.”
Sometimes it is difficult to make decisions that you know may be looked down on others even though you know God is asking things of you. Sometimes God asks us to give up or surrender for a while: ministries, commitments, even friends at times. Sometimes God wants to get your mind on him so he can talk to you. This will often provoke persecution from others, even the church. They won’t understand, but the call is undeniable to you. You have no choice but to do what the Big Guy asks of you.
Don’t label me, Don’t put me in a box, Don’t tell me what is going on behind closed doors…I am God’s son and I will serve him!
