"I will not reject anyone who comes to me."


REJECTION


Abandoned, she was left to the care of family. Her parents were never coming back. Love, compassion and mercy were never seen by her. The abandoned child can grow up feeling unsafe in the world and feeling people cannot be trusted. One can carry the burden of rejection all their life.


Many have experienced rejection from spouses, friends and family members. Close childhood friends don't talk anymore because of some slight or, worse, a perceived slight. Rejection makes us very vulnerable and out of fear many proceed with caution once they have tasted rejection. It is hard to find trust.


We know from FACE ZBS teachings that Jesus loves with kindness, compassion and mercy. He will never reject us. "I will not reject anyone who comes to me."


He is waiting!! Come to Him and you will not be disappointed. Open your heart, your mind and your dreams. Trust, believe and wait for what He knows is best for you. Be in a state of grace-to better see Him. The Divine healer loves you. Learn to love Him back.


He is with you throughout all the mysteries of the rosary. Meditate on them, walk with His Mother in her joys and sorrows.


How could He possibly reject us? His humble kind heart won't allow it. Remember that, when we see Him hanging on the Cross, rejected and deserted by all His apostles, except John.


“Trust in the LORD with all thine heart;

and lean not unto thine own understanding.

In all thy ways acknowledge him,

and he shall direct thy paths”

(Proverbs 3:5, 6)


God bless you.
