“Jesus Was Hated—But He Still Loved”
📖 “They hated Me without a cause.”
—John 15:25b (NKJV)
Have you ever had someone not like you—and you didn’t even know why?
That can feel confusing and sad.
Jesus felt that too.
People hated Him, even though He never did anything wrong.
He told the truth. He healed the sick. He showed love.
Still, some people were angry with Him… just because He was different.
But do you know what Jesus did?
He kept loving them.
He didn’t fight back. He didn’t stop helping people.
He kept showing God’s love—even to the people who hated Him.
When people treat us badly for being like Jesus, we can remember:
Jesus understands… and He can help us do what’s right.
Think About It:
- Why do you think some people didn’t like Jesus?
- What can you do when someone is unkind to you?
Prayer:
Jesus, thank You for loving people—even when they didn’t love You back. Help me love others like You do, even when it’s hard. Amen.

● 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.
