He was despised and rejected and forsaken by men, a Man of sorrows and pains, and acquainted with grief and sickness; and like One from Whom men hide their faces He was despised, and we did not appreciate His worth or have any esteem for Him.

Isaiah 53:3

Have you ever felt like there were people who did not value you? You kept trying to convince that man that you were a good woman and if he left he would never find another one like you. He left anyway.

You kept trying to seek the approval of others to quench the place in your heart where the people that were supposed to be there for you rejected you.

Jesus knows what you are feeling. He went through the same thing. People not realizing HIS value. He was the KING and people still saw him as the baby in a manger. They did not realize who he really was when they went to stone him. They laughed at him, they scoffed him and still, he was good to those around him.

So if you have been rejected, there is nothing wrong with you. Sometimes, people just don’t know the value of those around them. Sometimes, you will have to learn to have God fill those people damaged holes that were created by their lack of knowledge.

And when God has a chance to get involved he does nothing but proves his faithfulness. He loves the brokenhearted. He loves the rejected. And he will never leave them. He will continually prove to them his love in the areas where he is allowed in. Many times the places become shiny objects once he has a chance to clean them up.

Read this scripture with me :

I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh.

Ezekiel 36:26

This scripture is a promise that he can give you a new heart. He can cause the things you have been through to bless you and not to harm you. Your heart will be accepted, loved, and carefully taken care of instead of rejected, abandoned, and unsafe.

Take some time to pray over the area that has turned into a heart of stone from the years of rejection. Your heart can’t love properly because it hurts too bad, it cant receive love because it doesn’t believe it deserves it. Your heart has been hardened from the wrong things. He will make your heart to sing again, to believe again, to love again, and to be the you you never thought you could be.
