Common misconceptions! 💜💕
Do you think people judge you when they hear you believe in God before they even get to know you?
💕💜
Yes, and it’s exactly what I was thinking when I opened up this group. Christians hold each other up to different standards and so does the secular world. We are all human, Christian or not, and we should all be doing our best. Thanks for the question.
What’re your own thoughts on this? @amanda84
@2Ears2Hear
I hold myself to a higher standard because of my faith, but the faith I want to express is one of mercy, love, compassion and kindness. Every person chooses their own moral compass. I treat each person with respect regardless of faith, gender, sexuality, race or career choice 🥰
@Amanda84
yes! I know we have to be bold in our faith but it’s hard bc. It could mean you will be isolated or ostracized.
@forestshadow
Yes, I get that, have been there, but I have never cared what other people think 🤗💚 If they don't like my faith or at least respect it, they are not my people 💚
@Amanda84
sometimes yeah
too many bad people used the lord name to hurt others and it falls on all of us sadly
@scorpionpolktanktree

I would think that everyone has their prejudices whether we like to admit it or not. It's how we choose to react when we interact.
What's more important is that we believe that God first loved us and knowing that we are loved by Him, we feel compelled to do the same towards our fellow brothers and sisters journeying in life :)
