Lord, this child of yours knows she needs to change. Like all of us, you love us, but you hate the sin. Help her to hate the sin in her life. And to put Jesus First in her life.

Hi there! You are not alone. I feel rejected too. I suffer from low self esteem and depression. I feel hopeless, worthless and discouraged. I feel insecure too. I am very sensistive and emotional so my feeling get hurt more easily. I have a lot of emotional scars from when people brought me down including the other day when a neighbor told me I was a digrace to the neighborhood because of my being unable to get my grass done not knowing because I am disabled, suffering financially, struggling, nobody who cares about me enough to help me, tons of problems, lots of responsibilities and tons of stuff on my plate but no money in my bank account, working full time but no money, etc. This lady judged me and wounded and severed me very severely saying "What kind of person are you? I wanted to tell her I was a servant of Jesus Christ, because I could tell she was probably a Christian too. This is how everyone thinks of me because I am so weird. I feel unwanted, unwelcome, unaccepted. Hardly anybody respects me because of my differences. This lady judged me because of my yard, which only added to the mounds of guilt and hurts I am already carrying. It hurt all the more because my yard is pathetic looking with grass 4 feet tall in some spots. :frown It was psychologically traumatic to me. And this just happened 2 days ago! I am so different, adnormal and unusual. It causes a cycle. Because I feel like I'm a weird person, I tend to act like one, causing more rejection and judgement causing me to feel worthless. I am afraid of people and tend to avoid them to avoid pain like what was inflicted on me the other day. I hardly trust anybody. I need compassion, not judgement. I know you are in the same boat. Guess what? It is people like us that Jesus reaches out to the most with comapssion. We are among those called to be his disciples. It is the wierd unaccepted members of society that Jesus wants. "Follow me!" He scorned the pharisees and people with class, but had compassion and dinners with the wierd. I will be praying for you to get through these hard times you face.

Your fellow sister in Christ,

Janet

Dear Janet
Wow The power you let people have over you. I understand and have compassion for you.
But you said it your self GOD Loves you.
God wants you.
That is faith. Once you really have that faith in GOD Nothing can have t power to have that much influence Over you Only God can.
I know how it is sometimes things trigger the past hurts and we react the same way we always did because thats what we know. I too do the same thing from time to time.We all do. We are all human . Noone has the perfect life or is perfect. We are not God Or in heaven.

Thats where FORGIVNESS comes in.
Once you truly forgive those who hurt you. You can let go of the past and the hurt. Then you won't react the same way and things get better.
Once you realize that the ones who hurt you are human too!! and don't realize what they do to others you have to feel sorry for them. For they will feel the pain someday that they have caused and that is sad for anyone to feel .You are the one who realizes it and am more enlightened
So have faith Janet. Know you are good and try to be. Don't doubt it. Look on others who do hurt with compassion and forgiveness and then you can let go of the hurt and not feel so bad .You can be an example to others. Who cares what they think. They are not GOD!! Only try and care what GOD thinks of you . Being Good is not wierd .It may seem like it in this world. But actually the others are weird. IT is not the way it should be . But if you get strong and show an example you can touch just one other soul and then they will be an example and so on and so on. Then some day things will be the way they should.

Forgive those who Harm you !!Be good to those who Hate!! Forgive but not Forget!! I know its not to late . Forgive them and find out too , That the Love of your Life is YOU!!

I also like to thank you For letting me remember this because I too let others sometimes have too much power over the way I feel
