While I was at Mercy God spoke these words to me. He showed me that I needed to stop believing the lies that the enemy was constantly bombarding my mind with. I’ve struggled a-lot with feelings of rejection. It has gotten better but sometimes I start hearing these things in my head. But, then I remember that I have the ability to fight against them. I can choose to listen to the voice of rejection or I can choose to listen to the words of God which are words of acceptance and love. I hope that this will help you to see how God sees you no matter what other people say about you.
“It’s Name is rejection” By Sarah Sheridan
The voice of rejection screams
“You will never be wanted!”
“Nobody sees you!”
“They will never care!”
The voice of rejection screams
“If I try I will be pushed away, So why even try?”
“People will never love you!”
The voice of rejection screams
“You will never be accepted!”
“You are worthless!”
“You’re a waste of a life!”
The voice of rejection screams
“Your friends are going to leave.”
“You mess up everything!”
“No one truly loves you!”
The voice of rejection,
it’s one I am far to familiar with.
My mind wanders in a world of rejection
It leads to a dark pit.
A pit of depression,
a pit of anxiety,
a pit of comparison.
This voice torments me day and night.
I hear, “If everyone else hates you, you should hate yourself.”
My mind becomes my biggest enemy!
This is why I have to fight, fight those battles in my head.
I fight them with the sword and send those lies to hell where they belong!
The enemy no longer has any power!
He has had enough!
And I am done with his lies!
Now I hear a new voice.
It is the voice of acceptance.
The voice of acceptance whispers
“You are wanted.”
“You are seen!”
“I care!”
The voice of acceptance whispers
“Keep trying and I will pull you in!”
“I have people who will love you!”
The voice of acceptance whispers
“You are accepted!”
“You are worthy!”
“I don’t waste life!”
The voice of acceptance whispers
“I am your friend and will never leave.” “
Even in your mess I am there.”
“I love you!”
The voice of acceptance
It’s the one I need to become familiar with
My mind can now breathe in a world of acceptance.
Of God’s acceptance
I can climb out of the pit
The pit of depression
The pit of anxiety
The pit of comparison
This voice breathes life day and night I hear,
“If I love you, you can love yourself!”
