“Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me.”
— Matthew 5:11 NASB1995
🧠 Misunderstood but Not Alone
Being misunderstood can feel worse than being ignored. And when people spread lies or twist your faith to make you look bad—it hits deep. Jesus gets it. He lived it. And He says you’re blessed when this happens.
Not “blessed” because it feels good—but because it means you’re walking so closely with Him that it shows—and the world pushes back.
🔊 Real Talk:
- Have you ever been misjudged because of your faith or convictions?
- How can you respond like Jesus when people insult you?
✨ Try This:
If someone misjudges you for your faith, don’t fire back. Pause and pray. Ask Jesus for wisdom—and let your actions speak louder than their words.
✍️ Prayer:
Jesus, You were lied about, mocked, and rejected. Help me respond like You—without hate or fear. Give me strength to love even when it’s hard. 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.
