Comment on Ditched Because You're a Christian?

Wow! Thank you for such a powerful post. I too understand the pains associated with losing friendships due to your walk with the Lord. As a matter of fact, I am currently experiencing these pains as I take my first steps on my journey to ministry.

I have had to give up on a LOT of things and people. However, one thing that sticks in my mind is God's master plan is in the workings and I am just a vessel in His service.

Stay encouraged and keep up the blessed writing.

I often get the same reaction when people find out I'm a pastor's wife...suddenly people are almost afraid of me because they think they can't be themselves around me...so I totally understand the experience!

I also lost friends after I became a Christian. And some of those folks will probably never want to be friends with me again. Sadly. But over the past few years, I've also started to see some of them come back to me and want to know how to make changes in their lives, too. It's a whole new mission field. And oh, the reconnecting is SO sweet!

I love it! You nailed it...even more clear then JM! You ARE so right. The God of this universe wants our complete trust and faith. Not 'just' the bare minimum. Love you.

Thank you for a great reminder, Laura. I, too, realize I do that sometimes. What are we thinking? After all, we don't serve just any God!
