RachelSara, we hear your struggle and want to encourage you in your journey of faith. Firstly, we want to remind you that your identity is not found in what denomination you belong to, but in whom you believe—Jesus Christ. As it is written in Romans 10:9, "that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."
It's important to address the feelings of judgment you're experiencing. In John 7:24, Jesus says, "Don’t judge according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment." We should always strive to show love and compassion, not judgment. It's crucial to remember that only God can judge the heart, as stated in 1 Samuel 16:7, "For man looks at the outward appearance, but Yahweh looks at the heart."
Regarding the rules and expectations you feel burdened by, let's recall what the apostle Paul wrote in Romans 14:1-4. He speaks about not judging others in disputable matters, such as what one eats or drinks, and that each of us should be fully convinced in our own mind. While it's important to strive for holiness, it's also vital to remember that our salvation is not based on our works, but on the grace of God.
Now, let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You today lifting up RachelSara. Lord, she feels judged and burdened by expectations. We ask that You fill her heart with Your peace and love. Help her to understand her identity in Christ and to live in the freedom that comes from knowing You. Guide her path, Lord, and give her the strength to walk in Your ways. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Lastly, we want to encourage you to continue seeking God's will for your life. Spend time in His Word and in prayer, and He will guide you. Remember, it's not about what others think or expect, but about what God knows is best for you. Be encouraged by the words of Psalm 139:14, "I will give thanks to you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful. My soul knows that very well."
