The 4 Positive Lessons You Can Learn From Rejection

in Relationships, Spiritual Growth on 08/02/18

When filing the paperwork to finalize the adoption for Manny we had the option to legally change his name. While praying about what to change it to, the name Nathan came to our hearts. In Hebrew, that name means, “A Gift From God.” We knew right away that our son’s name was to be changed to Nathan and that he really is our gift from God. (His legal first name is Nathan and we moved his former first name, Manuel, to his middle name. He goes by Nathan in a formal setting but Manny is our nickname for him)

After the adoption was finalized Manny still had to deal with the many emotions that come along with finalization. He was still very angry about the hurt that was caused by his birth mom and how his life felt so different from the other children around him.

One day I was listening to Manny while he shared his hurt with me. He looked up at me and asked, “Why did you name me Nathan?” I reminded him that Nathan means “a gift from God” and how we feel that he is our forever gift that God entrusted us with.

Through tears, my son looked at me and said, “I don’t feel like a gift.” I’ve never felt the sense of rejection on someone as much as I did at that moment. I saw how defeated he looked, how his past made him feel less than, how his mother mistreated him which caused all of his struggles, and how she rejected him by choosing her selfish desires over him.

Psalm 27:10 says, “Though my father and mother forsake me, the LORD will receive me.

Rejection is a real, deep, and an isolating feeling. Rejection will make you think you’re not worthy, alone, and unwanted. Rejection will tell you that no matter how hard you try you don’t deserve acceptance. The feelings of rejection can be triggered in an instant and take way longer to subside.

Just like my son, I’m sure you’ve experienced rejection too. You may not have felt it for the same reasons as him, but maybe you have through your relationships, friendships, or career. Those times of rejection can be confusing and sometimes unmerited and if you’re not careful you can allow those feelings of rejection turn into defeat. When this happens you can be tempted to live a defeated life and those moments of rejection are no longer just moments; they’re a lifestyle.

The 4 Positive Lessons You Can Learn From Rejection

1. Rejection Shines A Light On Your Source: When you walk through a season of rejection, no matter what type it is, rejection will always shine a light on your foundation. It will show if you place your worth in your romantic relationship. It will show if your value is based on the words and actions of your family or friendships. It will even show your career being the supplier of your confidence. When Christ is not your source and firm foundation- rejection will crack your foundation to the core. When you look towards people, positions, and materials to feel love and acceptance, it will never fulfill or satisfy your spirit until you know Who your source of acceptance is from.

Ephesians 3:18-19 says, “And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.”

2. Rejection Has A Name And They Need Prayed For: Whoever is behind the reason your rejection, they’re a person and they need to be prayed for too. You may have experience rejection due to selfishness, a difference of opinion, judgment, or because someone was more qualified. Your rejection may have been unmerited or simply because someone didn’t feel the same way towards you as you do towards them. Whatever the reason is behind the rejection doesn’t change how you should pray for them. Pray for the family member who doesn’t accept you. Pray for the organization who passed you up for a position. Pray for the person who walked away from a romantic relationship with you. When you pray, lift them up. Pray for their success and their relationship with Christ. Praying for the person behind the rejection will heal your hurt and walk in freedom.

Matthew 5:44 says, “But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you…”

3. Rejection Is Not God Showing Favoritism: It’s common to wonder why God continues to allow rejection to happen and to question it. It’s easy to start the game of comparison and see other’s acceptance as God’s way of favoring them. Scripture is clear that God does not show favoritism. We serve a God who allows free will which when used incorrectly by others it can bring a lot of hurt and pain. However, we serve a God who uses it for good every single time (Romans 8:28). Don’t get stuck in questioning God on the “why’s.” Allow Him to use these feelings of rejection to strengthen your trust in Him. Allow Him to give you a heart and compassion towards others who’ve experienced deep hurt from rejection and to use your story to encourage them. Allow Him to create a sensitive heart within you and to teach you to carefully not reject others.

Romans 2:11 says, “For God does not show favoritism”

4. Rejection Could Actually Be Protection: When you’re praying for the will of God over your life and wanting direction, it’s inevitable that you’re going to hear “no’s.” A door closing, whether it’s to a relationship or an opportunity- if you’re trusting God to guide your steps you must also trust when He closes a door and take it as protection and not rejection. James and I were facing a huge door closing a few years ago and we saw it closing from afar and the entire time I heard God say, “I’m doing this to protect you.” It was still frustrating and still hurt, but there was a peace knowing we were protected. Asking God for understanding and discernment will help you decipher between rejection versus protection.

Proverbs 2:11 says, “Discretion will watch over you, understanding and discernment will guard you.”

If you’ve recently gone through a season of rejection I want to encourage you:

Be encouraged as you press into Christ and stand firm knowing He is your firm foundation and you will not be shaken. Be encouraged as you pray scripture over your hurt and disappointment and allow Christ to bring the good out. Be encouraged that while there is no favoritism in Christ you can carry His favor into all that you do so you’re work will be blessed and multiply.

Have you gone through a season of rejection and learned from it? If so, I’d love to hear from you. Comment below with your lessons learned so we can be encouraged through your story.

    Great encouragement for us all to take a good look at what we are fighting when we feel rejected. Especially wise to pray blessing in the backflow. Thank you.

    Lessons are learned and blessings are given through rejection. God never rejects us. He loves us always. I am thankful for leaning into His love whenever I have felt rejected.

    This is all so true. Rejection is not always the worst thing that can happen

    I think it’s easy to pray for good things to happen. Personally, I pray for peace, understanding, and acceptance of almost every situation.

    Thank you for this! I have faced rejection, of course, but the rejection of a friend a few years ago shook me like nothing else. God has used it, though. I have drawn closer to Him as I realized I did put more stock and value in this relationship than I did in my relationship with Him. Recently, I am learning other good things He has brought from the situation. It was hard, but I am so glad He doesn’t allow anything in vain.

Happy Easter!! •••• I met Jesus when I was Happy Easter!!
••••
I met Jesus when I was 14 years old. My brother invited me to church with him, I went, listened, and was given a Bible at the end of the service. ••••
I remember coming home and sitting on my bed with my new Bible in my hand. I sat there thinking of everything I was told that night and how it reminded me of everything I was taught when I was a little girl. ••••
After sitting there for awhile, I prayed for the very first time. Out loud I said, “OK God, if you are who they say you are, then why would you send your son to die for me, why wouldn’t you just die for me?”
••••
Immediately, and when I say immediately I truly mean with no hesitation a thought came into my mind. I heard, “Doesn’t a parent love their child so much that they would die for them? I love you so much more then that, that I would allow my child to die for YOU.”
••••
I knew the thought that had entered my mind was not from me. I knew it was God speaking directly to me. Since that day, I’ve followed Jesus, learning more about Him, and have dedicated my life to sharing about eternal life through Christ and all the goodness He is. ••••
The world will tell you religion is all about rules and what not to do. Can I personally tell you, that is not true. Following Jesus has given me freedom to truly live. I GET to do things because of Jesus. ••••
I get to love others because Jesus taught me how to love. 
I get to give to others because Jesus has given so much to me. 
I get to truly forgive because Jesus forgave me. 
I get to heal from the hurts life has thrown at me because Jesus has healed me. 
I get to live a life full of JOY because joy comes from Jesus! 
And sooo much more! ••••
My prayer for you is to passionately serve Jesus, have eternal life through Him, and to truly experience what is feels to live a life of freedom.

I spent a semester in Israel during my college yea I spent a semester in Israel during my college years @seuniversity. It was two months after James and I got married so, our first few months as a married couple were spent walking the same streets of Jesus. To say it was a cool experience would be an understatement. •••••••
During my time in Israel there were two moments that took my breath away. One of those moments was being in the literally prison hole that Jesus stayed in the night before He died. •••••••
Historical sites are given a grading scale. An A site is “this is for sure the site that XYZ took place.” An B site is “XYZ took place here OR there” And a C site is “XYZ took place somewhere in this region.” •••••••
Jesus holding cell is an A site. •••••••
I stood in the prison with my fellow students and professor and his family. We sang the hymn - “I Have Decided To Follow Jesus.” It was the only time there I wept like a baby. Snot and all haha! •••••••
But man, to be where your savior was knowing what was to come and He chose to do it anyways. I’ve never felt more love in that moment then I have in my entire life. ••••••••
So today, my prayer is for you to feel that same love. To know Jesus died today for YOU and that He came back for YOU! You are His chosen child. •

I posted last night how I would be sharing with yo I posted last night how I would be sharing with you today what the beginning of 2020 held for my family which caused me to take a pause on writing. •
•

In January we lost my sweet mother-in-law very suddenly. It was a shock to us all and has taken us a bit to wrap our minds around. •
•

In addition to the loss of my mother-in-law, we’ve been navigating some health struggles. Now, with everything going on in our world, I can say it’s def been a year so far. •
•

But, God is good. If it’s not good- then it doesn’t come from God. The enemy is very real but nothing to fear because our God is bigger. •
•

So, Today, I want to take a moment to share with you what losing my sweet mother-in-law has taught me. It’s something we can all learn from and I hope it blesses you and encourages you. •

Hi, friend. I know it’s been awhile and I have Hi, friend. 
I know it’s been awhile and I have a post going up tomorrow that explains what the beginning of 2020 has held for myself and my family. 
But, I wanted to get one here tonight to share something that has been on my heart. 
You cannot turn on the TV or pick up your phone without the word “COVID-19” blaring at you. While it’s wise to be informed, these are times many can become anxious, full of fear, and worry. 
Friend, this is our time. And what I mean by that, it’s the Church body’s time. It’s our time to rise up and praise the name of Jesus louder then any other name or word. 
Can I remind you that Jesus conquered every sickness and disease! 
Every. Single. One. 
When He died on that cross. 
And He rose again. 
There are a lot of different beliefs on healing, authority, and what role it plays in our life today. I want to encourage you to seek Jesus through His word and allow the Holy Spirit to guide you to His truth. 
When you find yourself reading this, do me a favor and pause. Look up Psalm 91. Read it, listen to it on repeat on the Bible app, and dwell in the presence of God. 
And then, wake up tomorrow knowing you are a child of the most high King- who rescues you from every attack of the enemy, who protects you from deadly diseases, who is covering you with His feathers and providing you shelter. 
I love you, friend. I’m praying for you.

My family and I just got back from spending a week in South Carolina for Christmas with my parents. •
•
•

Today was a day full of unpacking, cleaning, grocery shopping, and getting back into our normal routine. •
•
•

But, this morning while everyone slept I spent time praying and drinking some coffee. I have so many ideas, goals, and big dreams for my blog and this ministry. •
•
•

I thought about my reader who has used my blog posts to build a women’s ministry curriculum for her neighboring village in western part of Kenya. •
•
•

I thought about my reader in Papua New Guinea who is new in her faith walk and a simple google search looking for more of God’s word led her to my site. •
•
•

I thought about my reader who leads her local church with her husband here is the USA and was looking for a fellow female Christian to connect with and have a space to talk about things she can’t with those around her. •
•
•

I thought about my reader who was diagnosed with a life altering illness and found my site while searching for scripture on healing. •
•
•

I thought about you. The one who has visited and read time and time again. Who has listened while I shared from the deep parts of my heart on the struggles, the wins, the rejections, and the answered prayers of my life. Who has sent encouraging messages, shared feelings, and prayers. Who has in turn opened up to me and shared from the depths of their heart. •
•
•

As you know, I refer to my readers as ‘friend’ and that’s because a friend shows up, listens, encourages, shares, and prays. So, thank you. Thank you for being a friend. 
I’m looking forward to this new year with you as I share more of what God continues to lay on my heart. I’ll continue to look forward to hear from you as we do this journey of life together. •
•
•

Love you friend.
Hi, friend. • • • I’ve been taking things Hi, friend. •
•
•
I’ve been taking things slow over here to enjoy as much of this baby season as humanly possible. Getting to hold and kiss Colton everyday, all day long is a huge blessing I don’t want to take for granted. •
•
•
Because of that, my writing and speaking have been moving slower. I’ve had moments where I’ve shared with James the tug and pull I feel everyday, each week. There’s so many things I want to be doing, creating, sharing but I have to pick and choose right now. •
•
•
Tonight, I was feeding Colton before putting him to bed. When he was done with his bottle I sat it down but kept holding him while finishing a tv show. I heard him cooing and I look down and this precious face was staring up at me with the sweetest smile. •
•
•
Pure joy and love on his face. •
•
•
Friend, here’s your friendly reminder to keep on praying and believing that God has already won the battle, flattened the mountain, and straightened your path. •
•
•
After 2 and 1/2 years of barrenness and praying for this beautiful baby, my Heavenly Father so lovingly answered my prayer with the sweetest boy. •
•
•
I feel closer to Jesus because I pressed into Him during my waiting season and I want the same for you. •
•
•
Press in. •
•
•
And when your prayer is answered: enjoy. every. part. of. it. •
•
•
Even if that means other things need to move slower. •
•
•
Love you, friend. ❤️

Tonight, I was feeding Colton before putting him to bed. When he was done with his bottle I sat it down but kept holding him while finishing a tv show. I heard him cooing and I look down and this precious face was staring up at me with the sweetest smile. •

•
Pure joy and love on his face. •

Friend, here’s your friendly reminder to keep on praying and believing that God has already won the battle, flattened the mountain, and straightened your path. •

After 2 and 1/2 years of barrenness and praying for this beautiful baby, my Heavenly Father so lovingly answered my prayer with the sweetest boy. •
•
•
I feel closer to Jesus because I pressed into Him during my waiting season and I want the same for you. •
•
•
Press in. •
•
•
And when your prayer is answered: enjoy. every. part. of. it. •
•
•
Even if that means other things need to move slower. •
•
•
Love you, friend. ❤️
