Christ Will Never Let You Down. Respect Is Not Optional. The Lord Jesus Christ is unchanging. He will never leave you, nor forsake you (Hebrews 13:5). People may fail you, disrespect you, use you, and lie to your face. They may not value your presence, your effort, or your kindness. But Christ is not like men. His Word stands forever. His promises are sure. He will never let you down. Respect is not optional in the kingdom of God. It is commanded: “Honor all people. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.” (1 Peter 2:17) You do not need to beg for acceptance in places where you are not valued. The Lord did not call you to chase after the approval of people. Jesus Himself said, “If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you.” (John 15:18) If they ignore you, let them. If they exclude you, move forward. If they hurt you, do not go back expecting healing from the same hand that wounded you. You were called to peace (Colossians 3:15), not to constant striving and exhaustion for the sake of those who do not see your God-given worth. Build your own table. Form your own circle. Surround yourself with those who respect you, who see you, and who genuinely love you, not for what you can do, but for who you are in Christ. “Do not be deceived: ‘Evil company corrupts good habits.’” (1 Corinthians 15:33) You have learned where your energy belongs and where it does not. Do not sacrifice your calling, your peace, or your dignity for anyone. God Himself gives value to His children: “See what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God!” (1 John 3:1) To those who lied, to those who used you and mistreated you, do not seek revenge. Leave them to God. “Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, ‘Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,’ says the Lord.” (Romans 12:19) You were never a burden. You never needed to prove yourself. You showed kindness, respect, and integrity, even when others did not. If their actions betrayed their words, that is a reflection of their character, not yours. You did not deserve the pain. But do not let bitterness take root. Instead, pray for them and wish them well, as the Lord taught: “But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you.” (Matthew 5:44) Let this be your resolve: Christ will never let you down. Place your hope in Him alone. Walk in respect, honor, and truth. Set your boundaries with wisdom. Keep your heart pure, your conscience clear, and your eyes on the Lord. Step out of toxic circles. Stop seeking validation from those who refuse to see your worth. Build your life on Christ, with people who honor and love you. Forgive, release, and move forward. God has prepared a place for you, a table, a circle, a purpose, where you belong. Heavenly Father, Thank You for never letting me down, even when people fail me. Give me the courage to let go of what is not from You, the wisdom to discern where my energy belongs, and the grace to forgive those who have hurt me. Help me to walk in love, respect, and integrity. Lead me to the table You have prepared for me, surrounded by those who honor You and value me as Your child. I trust You completely. In Jesus’ Name. Amen. #AriseForChrist
