Often times Christians are said

To be peace loving weak people

Who don't need to take decisions

Who forgive and forget everything and everyone

Although all this is true

It is equated with weak and feeble

But Christians are the toughest ones

They follow plans

When they don't know the outcome

Their decisions are the hardest to take

For they don't know whether they are right

They too have to fight a fear telling them

It may not be good for them right then

The key to being a christian is decisions

Always its our decisions

That affect us

Far more than our abilities

So have the courage to take decisions

That if God asks you

To let go of what you love most

To believe that you will receive healing

For that is what God created us for

This is true! sometimes we even have to disappoint people we Love

in order to follow the LORD

It's not always easy and I myself have just recently had some measure

of victory on this area, but of course it's still a challenge.

true indeed, for I have been blasted and called names for being a christian from a nephew in regards to his mother (my older sister) that has been jealous for me for so many years, I won't go into that right now, but knowing the troubles i was going thru after a divorce and telling me i should help our alcoholic brother (which I did let him move in for 5 weeks) which was horrible, he couldn't keep a job, he come home drunk every nite, I told him to get some professional help, he wouldnt listen, then I kicked him out last year and it all started a fight with my sister and her family, then being attacked, I had to walk away and disown that part of my family, so hurtful and still is, if my mother were alive she would not believe this would be happening. I pray to the Lord all the time over this, it is a ache that lingers in my heart, for my 28 yr old nephew to attack me and tell me he is a pagan and my christian life was a joke putting it mildly here, and my sister allowing him to talk to me like this, was unbelievable. And as for the alcoholic brother he is still jobless and continues his drinking. But its so worth being a christian to me, God has been there for me, and I know God can do miraculous things in my life and in the lives of your loved ones, its a challenge as a believer to take God at His word...and i know things in life will shake your faith indeed.

God bless you Desi. I have been through some similar things myself (maybe not as harsh as yours). It still hurts to be rejected and mocked by a family member. It is hard to be treated with disrespect and forgive that person... But we have to remember that Christ was mocked, scorned, and rejected. He still loves and gave his own life for us. We just have to forgive those people and pray that they will come to know Christ. Until then, they will not know the trials that Christians go through. They don't understand that we have struggles and temptations. God's grace and mercy helps us overcome those adversities. Just because we are Christians does not mean we are immuned to sin. We just allow a mighty God to deliver us from that sin ! !

1 Peter 1:7 That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:
