How to Heal from Rejection I know rejection. It was a constant reality for me for many years from childhood. It’s not an easy companion to live with since it continually nags and harasses your every thought with whispers of not belonging, being disliked, and being unaccepted. Yet all those years I did not have a clue about how to heal from the rejection I encountered. I considered myself permanently labeled “rejected and unwanted.” After I met God—truly met Him in a miraculous encounter with redemption—much later in my restoration journey, I realized rejection was a big issue in my life and an area where I needed to heal. I had to go from reject to reset and start fresh, with a clean slate, accepting God’s truth in my life. The good news is God wants to accept us. He wants to restore our separation from Him. That is why He sent His Son to give His life on the cross for us. Christ became sin and took on rejection so we could be accepted. We can be accepted back into God through our acceptance of Jesus’ sacrifice for us. The only cure for the wounds of rejection is to gain God’s acceptance. Hallelujah! When we receive God by accepting the blood of Jesus Christ, God automatically accepts us.
