When you are not Liked! 👎🏻

I had a  friend of about 8 years write me on instant messenger. In all of the eight years of knowing me and following me on social media never did she once talk to me or even simply like a post. Last week she messaged me to tell me how I’m failing at my platform here! Never once in 8 years did she see anything good I’ve done, I guess 🤷🏼‍♀️, but chose to watch to wait for me to fail (in her mind but not Gods btw). She does not like my conservative beliefs that I boldly share as gracefully as possible. She said that I need a heart check because I’m not acting Christian like. I would have been happy to hear her out had she approached me in a way to learn why I post certain things but that was not the case and since she has no clue what I face daily, I really do not care to hear her opinion and decided to part ways!

I guess why I’m still slightly stirring about this is because I don’t think she understands the challenges of this calling. I looked at her page and never once does she mention about God or politics. Her page is about her son growing up, Which is a wonderful thing to share of course and I use to use Facebook for that reason too but I was called to use it for something else. I guess I don’t understand how she would even know the challenges I face building a platform like this because she has never tried it. She has no idea the challenges and heart ache it has taken me to push through these last 5 years to share an unpopular opinion which I do believe God has given me the endurance to share!

Having a platform on social media where you share your religious and political beliefs for all the world to watch and scrutinize is NO walk in the park but for me it’s a calling that I promised God I would stick to and see through! If for some reason you believe you can do it better than please by all
means give it a GO!

P.S. I will always be here for you when you hit your first road block or feel like a failure! I’ve battled through like 100 road blocks on here and I plan to battle through 10,000 more!!!
