"Jesus Calling" by Sarah Young (Devotional for 10/28/)
Do not expect to be treated fairly in this life. People will say and do hurtful things to you, things that you don't deserve. When someone mistreats you, try to view it as an opportunity to grow in grace. See how quickly you can forgive the one who has wounded you. Don't be concerned about setting the record straight. Instead of obsessing about other people's opinions of you, keep your focus on Me. Ultimately, it is MY view of you that counts.
As you concentrate on relating to Me, remember that I have clothes you in My righteousness and holiness. I see you attired in these radiant garments, which I bought for you with my blood. This also is not fair; it is a pure gift. When others treat you unfairly, remember that My ways with you are much better than fair. My ways are Love and Peace, which I have poured out into your heart by My Spirit.
