The Right Reaction to RejectionSample

The Right Reaction to Rejection

DAY 1 OF 3

Everyone has faced some sort of rejection at some point in their lives. While this is a universal truth, some people are more vulnerable to the sting of rejection than others.

While on the surface level rejection may appear to be the feeling you get when someone does not reciprocate your affection, it is actually an oppressive spirit that manifests itself through loneliness, bitterness and distrust if not dealt with responsibly.

Rejection can be difficult to deal with, but the good news is we are not alone.

No one knew rejection like Jesus. The prophet Isaiah said the son of God was a man rejected by many and well acquainted with suffering. After all, this was the same guy that went around healing others, but was beaten, spat on and made to carry a cross by the very people He performed miracles for.

What did Christ do when the people chose a revolutionary over Him and condemned Him to death? He accepted His fate and was led like a sheep to slaughter.

Amazingly, even though they abused Him, nailed His hands and feet to a rugged cross and pierced His side, in one of His last breaths, Jesus asked His heavenly Father to forgive His accusers.

Tomorrow we will discuss the remedy for rejection.
