Some of us have tasted
the bitterness of social exclusion..
Perceived as a social
invisable nothingness..
Where isolation becomes
your faithful friend..
Wounded by rejection and
scorned by indifference..
There's no smiling eyes
or warm hearts to greet you..
Only cradled by insecurity
and kissed by sorrow..

Some never felt the sweetness
of acceptance..
Life taught them that they
Just don't fit in..
Greeted by cold stares
and indifference..
They are made to feel broken
and ashamed..
For how they look,speak,act
and are is unacceptable..
They Some how don't meet
the social standards..

To those whose hearts weep
crystal tears of sadness...
Though the world may not
fully appreciate you...
The Lord your God is filled
with the deepest love for you..
His son died for you my dear
for you're the apple of his eye..
You are his beloved child
and you fit into his kingdom..
Accepted,loved,forgiven
made holy by his spirit...

You are beautiful,worthy
special and created by God...
Though life wounded you deeply
life can't define you..
God is speaking to you now
can't you hear his voice..?
Others may have made you
an outsider,invisible..
Others may even stare at you
or treat you unfairly..
Yet my love rest in this
You fit the lords requirements...

"One day all eyes will realise
that you belonged to a holy God..
Though others were evil to you
treating you like you're nothing..
They will realise that it was them
who didn't fit...not you...
For you were loved and accepted
by a greater love.."

God loves you...and so do I..๐Ÿ’•

Social exclusion really only has some reign and power in school days but at that age, it seems to us as if the rejection were coming from the whole universe.
The demonic narratives that we are thereby attacked distort everything to gigantic proportion, messing up our perceptions, to make us give up if anyhow possible and to try and twist our view of ourselves. Same like most of our diet depends upon behavior in the grocery store, most of the warfare is in the mind, but we are not to walk by the flesh but by the Spirit. Our brain is flesh. Very glorified, but in the end, still flesh. When your sugar drops, oh how can that brain get cranky and change a mood! It reacts so quickly because it's the flesh.
But things have meanings that we give them. It is important to remember we are the ones with the power who give things meaning and significance. We are the ones who choose our truths. The truths one sticks with can save or undermine a life so one's truth better be THE Truth and not just a demonic story launched into our mind to hurt us.
But most important question, who are we?
- We're not this body, the body continually replaces cells; so not body.
- We're not this mind, the mind changes constantly; so not mind.
- We're not this past that we had, we have a different present than our past was, and yet an improved future. So not who we were.
So the real question is, who has the power to reject anyone except God?
Tricks of the mind.

Hi soulweaver this is an interesting analytical view you are sharing here.Yes rejection and all other means of dysfunctional perspectives are all deceptive..and when someone is deceived they don't know they are deceived.The truth of who we really is often not completely reflected in our life experiences for our flesh is weak and is heavily influenced by the messages we interpret about how we see yourself from things around us.
I do appreciate you checking out this poem

Hi DorotheaSofia much appreciate your comments...๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Š
This poem is one that is close to.my heart indeed...โœ๐Ÿปโœ๐Ÿป
I may safely say that I might very well come back to this poem when I need encouragement. It is really beautiful and I am so glad you shared it- sometimes itยดs hard to do that with works of art because one wonders what others might think... Donยดt ever do that because it a) doesnยดt matter and b) your poem is soo helpful and so well written! Thank you for sharing!

Hi DorotheaSofia...it was so touching read your comments.It makes me happy to know that you gain something of real substance from this poem..๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Š
It is all based on real life experiences as well what I have both seen and heard in the life of others.Even sometimes among brothers and sisters in christ feeling that ones doesn't fit in can happen for a variety of reasons(..like a lady boy who becomes a Christian..trandsgender male/female who has full surgery ect...so cant reverse every thing thats been done to their bodies..for some this can be quiet challenge for their own moral compass).
Prejudice exists in various forms and you have blessed me..๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
Here are some flowers..(they have their own plant food).๐Ÿ˜Š๐ŸŒน๐ŸŒน๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ’๐ŸŒป๐ŸŒป๐ŸŒป๐ŸŒผ๐ŸŒผ๐ŸŒผ๐ŸŒบ๐ŸŒบ๐ŸŒบ
