Be strong. In this world, many people will try to put you down. But take heart! Let God Himself lift you up. – Jocelyn Soriano
Not everyone will understand where we’re coming from or what difficulties we’re going through. Many are so lost and concerned only of their own welfare that they can’t care anymore about our own. In their attempt to lift themselves up, they may even try to put you down.
Let this not dishearten you. Let the hurts caused by these people not cause you to give up your dreams.
You have to be strong. Take courage! Don’t let your happiness depend upon people who don’t know you; look up to God who truly knows you and loves you most.
…but we also rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces perseverance; and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope: and hope doesn’t disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts… – Romans 5:3-5, WEB-BE

Before I knew the Lord, I succumbed to so many peoples’ judgment of me. He will lift us up and stand us on higher ground when we trust in Him. If God is with us, who can be against us?
