NOT EVERYONE WOULD LIKE YOU

NOT EVERYONE WOULD LIKE YOU
Beloved,
Not everyone would like you and you have to be okay with this.
Some will dislike you for the very reason some people passionately love you.
It's their choice but don't let this deter you in your pursuit of God and His purpose for your life.
Let me tell you quite sternly, what they think of you is none of your business.
Be peaceful with all men but please, know your worth and value. The fact that someone does not like you does not diminish your worth and value.
It's completely okay for someone not to like you. Don't let people's hatred for you turn you into who you're not.
You are more than anyone's attitude towards you.
This year, make it your goal to keep fulfilling purpose whether people approve of you or not, whether they like you or not, whether they check on you or not, whether they think you are valuable or not.
Man didn't give you your purpose, God did! You are answerable to Him only!
I believe in you.
Let me know in the comments if this has helped you.

Looking at my life today, some might assume I was born with a golden spoon in my mouth. They see the progress, the platforms, the opportunities, the impact—and they conclude, “He must have had it all figured out from the start.” But here’s the truth... I wasn’t born with a golden spoon. In fact, I wasn’t even born with a spoon at all. The circumstances surrounding my birth were far from rosy. My beginning was rough, humble, and almost forgettable by the standards of this world. There was nothing to suggest that I would one day stand where I stand today, speak as I speak today, or do what I do today. But I was helped. I was helped by God. That’s the only reason I’ve come this far. And that, dear friend, is why I’m writing this—to remind you that it doesn’t matter where or how you were born . Your background, no matter how limiting or disadvantaged, cannot stop God’s plan for your life. You may not have had the best education. You may have been born into poverty. You may have been rejected, neglected, abandoned or overlooked. But when God steps into your life , He rewrites the story. He is not intimidated by your limitations. In fact, He specializes in using the foolish things of this world to confound the wise. He lifts the poor from the dust and sets them among princes (Psalm 113:7-8). You don’t need a silver spoon, golden spoon, or any spoon at all. All you need is His help . My life is a testament to this truth: God still helps men. He still lifts. He still promotes. He still turns nobodies into wonders. And I believe the same will happen for you. If you will let Him, If you will trust Him, If you will surrender your life to Him… You will become a miracle. You will become a wonder. Your story will be one that generations will talk about. So here’s my charge to you: Stop disqualifying yourself based on your background. Stop underestimating what God can do through you. Stop comparing your journey with someone else’s. Instead, start seeking God’s help. Start walking in faith. Start declaring His promises over your life. Because your story—yes, YOUR story—is not over yet. In fact, it’s just beginning. You are next in line for a miracle. I believe in you!
