Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and
falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad,
because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the
prophets who were before you.
There sure are a lot of accusations flying around these days.
All kinds of evil being spoken on both sides.
Unfortunately, none of the parties involved are likely feeling
blessed right now.
Sadly, I am seeing this drama tear apart families.
Am I the only one that is noticing this?
It feels like every 6 months or so there is yet another scandal
(that is what I am calling it, a scandal) that is driving a wedge between
friends, between families.
In the last 3 years I have seen more social media posts saying “if
you don’t agree with me, delete me” or “if you stand with this person I want
nothing to do with you”.
Don’t you see what is going on?
This is not about who is running for or elected to office, this
is not about events that happened decades ago – this is the evil one
infiltrating our lives, stealing our happiness, our families and friends!
Jesus said “blessed are you when people insult you, persecute
you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me.”
How much of what is being smeared through the news sources and
social media is true, and how much is just evil and false?
The only one that can bring us deliverance through this time of
persecution is Christ Jesus.
Please don’t let words and accusations destroy your bonds with
your families and friends.
Pray for our leaders, pray for each other and pray for the
people to see Jesus.
