The Gift of Rejection預覽

When you read the title of this devotional, you were probably perplexed because you can’t imagine how being overlooked, unwanted, or discarded could be a gift. So, I want to say at the outset that the act of rejection isn’t a gift.

However, what you will learn through this devotional series is that what rejection can teach you about yourself and others is a gift. Pain is only its wrapping paper.

For my part, when I consider the painful rejections I have experienced, they were usually painful because I believed the person rejecting me made me disposable and unworthy. When they rejected me, I accepted their decision as an indictment on my lack of value. So, today, I want you to consider two things:

1. What do you believe about yourself because someone else rejected you?
2. Did God say what you believe about yourself?

Think about this today and join me back here tomorrow as we begin to inspect the gift of rejection.
