“So Paul departed from among them. However, some men joined him and believed, among them Dionysius the Areopagite, a woman named Damaris, and others with them.”
The plans God has for you may not be accepted by everyone. The people you may have known your whole life, may not celebrate the new you or your obedience to God. It would be nice to have the support of everyone while you follow the plan Christ has for you, but not everyone who started with you, finish with you - And you have to be OK with that.
To carry out God’s mission, you may have to depart from some people, but God will always strengthen you along the way with the support you need to be successful. Try not to be concerned with the crowd behind you, but with the path in front of you. Keep doing what God wants you to do. If He wants certain people to stay in your life, He’s more than capable of orchestrating that. You only need to be faithful and keep listening to the voice of God.
God’s mission. My path.
