Rejection can make you a “persona non grata,” a “person without welcome.” But don’t let judgments, lies, or even hate make you a “persona non gratia,” a “person without grace.”
Choosing to live in God’s grace, despite how hard others may try to push you out of it, keeps you immersed in his peace, joy, faith, hope, love, and the truth of who you are. Offenses will come, but it’s your choice as to how long they stay.
“The law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ” (John 1:17).
