“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
🗯 When People Say Mean Things
Sometimes people say things that aren’t true or try to make fun of you because you love Jesus. That can hurt—but Jesus says you are blessed when that happens!
He knows what it’s like to be picked on and lied about. He promises to be close to you when you stand up for what’s right.
🏛 Long Ago…
In the early church, even children were teased or accused of things that weren’t true just because they believed in Jesus. But they kept loving God—and He gave them strength and joy!
💡 Think About It:
- Has anyone said something untrue about you before?
- How can you keep doing what’s right even when it’s hard?
🙏 Let’s Pray:
Jesus, help me be strong when others say mean or false things. Help me remember that You love me and are always with me. 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.
