To Be Like or Not Be Liked

Don't spend your life wondering who will like or dislike you. The enemy uses this old tool as a deterrent to keep you from accepting all that you are and all that you are becoming while confidently utilizing what the LORD has placed in your hands. Many people shy back because of fear that they won't be "liked", not accepted, or enough. 

The possibility and reality of it all is this: You won't always be LIKED. A lot of times, it has NOTHING to do with who you are more than it is something deeper rooted that lies within the person that doesn't "like" you. Love them but learn to leave them alone. Keep it moving because you have a purpose and destiny to fulfill and do not have time to be sidetracked by the "disliking committee". 

When they reject you, they are rejecting the sweetest thing since Domino Sugar. They are the ones missing out on the sweet blessing of godly, Spirit-filled friendships and camaraderie. So turn your prayers in hopes that the person(s) will allow the Holy Spirit to release them from the root of hate, jealousies, and fleshy competitions. Because at the end of the day, it is ALL ABOUT JESUS and building His Kingdom.
