“Blessed are those who have been persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.”
— Matthew 5:10 NASB1995
🛡 Standing Strong for What’s Right
Sometimes doing the right thing isn’t easy. People might laugh at you, leave you out, or make fun of you for loving Jesus. But Jesus says when this happens, you are blessed! That means He sees you, He is proud of you, and you are part of His Kingdom.
God gives you strength to be kind when others are not and to speak truth with love even when it’s hard.
🏛 Long Ago…
Early Christian children were sometimes teased or hurt because they followed Jesus. But they stayed strong and kept loving others—just like Jesus said.
💡 Think About It:
- Has anyone ever made fun of you for doing what’s right?
- How can you keep following Jesus even when it’s hard?
🙏 Let’s Pray:
Jesus, help me be strong when doing right is hard. Help me keep loving You and others, even when people don’t understand. Thank You that Your Kingdom belongs to those who follow You. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
