For those people who deem you not good enough, then it is their problem because they do not accept or understand that we are all equal in God's eyes. It is also our problem because we are not understanding that equality either, but if we are, then in our hearts we will pray for the understanding to come into the hearts of those who would put us down.

I think some people struggle with feeling not liked. Realizing how fickle people can be is a hard lesson to learn. Making that lesson stick is the real challenge.
Leigh, I have had a great struggle with that myself as well. The desire to be liked, to be well regarded, is a buried desire deep within my soul. It is not wrong in and of itself, of course - what is wrong is when I let it determine how I act instead of myself.
Comments are welcome (and necessary, for good conversation). If you could take the time to be kind and not practice profanity, it would be appreciated. Thanks for posting!

ReplyDeleteI am what I am, and I ain't what I ain't. If you like me, fine. If you don't like me, fine. That's the way I live...

ReplyDeleteVery true words.
ReplyDeleteVera, I think it is their problem. Or at least I am coming to understand that. There are folks I will never be good enough for.
ReplyDeletePete, I am most like that now myself.

ReplyDeleteI think so too, Linda.
