One of the biggest fears many people have in life is the fear of rejection. How many opportunities have we lost solely because we wanted to avoid the possibility of being turned down?
Jesus doesn’t sugarcoat matters as he prepares his disciples to go out in his name. The Gospel will not always be received with joy and faith. But God’s favor is far more precious than the opinion of others.
Fear not, dear child of heaven! Share the message of Christ with boldness!
