There are stories throughout church history of Christians who have been persecuted by their families for their faith. Rev. Khalid Mansoor Soomro is a former Muslim from Pakistan who committed to Christianity in 1985. When he shared his conversion story with his parents, he was turned out of his home and no longer accepted as a family member. Khalid had to choose between Jesus and his family. And he chose Jesus. Khalid reflects, "Even though it is not easy and we face many hardships, we feel like Paul, who went through hardships and suffering for the glory of his Savior, who himself suffered during his walk on earth and his time on the cross." Would you be willing to identify with Jesus if it meant being rejected by your family? Who really is your first love?
I was born and raised Catholic and was for the majority of my now 60 years. However I gave my life to Christ 5 years and because of the Grace of God I was given a NEW LIFE. I grew up with 4 siblings and now they want nothing to do with me. It saddens me, but does not bother me, because not only was I given a new life, I was given a new family and the past 5 years have been and continue to be the BEST YEARS of my life. Jak
