IT'S OKAY TO BE REJECTED

Scripture for today

Matthew 21:42 AMP
Jesus asked them, Have you never read in the Scriptures: The very Stone which the builders rejected and threw away has become the Cornerstone; this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes? [Ps. 118:22, 23.]

Have you ever been rejected? Read this! Being rejected is in fact not a good thing or a pleasant experience. I want to bring you a few illustrations of people who were rejected but we can remember their names. 

Walt Disney: Disney was fired from the Kansas City Star in 1919 because, his editor said, he “lacked imagination and had no good ideas.”

Michael Jordan: He was cut from his high school basketball team. He once said, “I have missed over 9,000 shots in my career. I have lost almost 300 games. On 26 occasions I have been entrusted to take the gam winning shot, and I have missed. I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.”

Marilyn Monroe: When she was trying to start her career, modeling agencies told her she should consider becoming a secretary.

Isaac Newton: Sure Newton was a wiz at math, but he did not excel when it came to other subjects. He never thrived in school and when he was once put in charge of running the family farm, he failed terribly. That was when he was sent off to Cambridge and the rest is history.

I brought up all these illustration so I will let you know that being rejected is never a sign of the end for you. God is ever faithful it is his plan that the stone builders reject will become the chief Cornerstone. Never be scared of rejection just stand right up again when rejected. Make sure nothing keeps you down. 

Prayer: Father, I know you are working out my best in any case of rejection.
