Send us a MessageWe’re back in Matthew 5, walking through the final three Beatitudes from the Sermon on the Mount—peacemaking, persecution, and what to do when people say false things about you because of Jesus.If you’ve ever tried to do the right thing and still found yourself misunderstood, excluded, or talked about, you are not alone—and you are not failing the Christian life.In this episode, we talk about what biblical peacemaking really looks like. It is not pretending everything is fine or forcing resolution. It looks like listening first, seeking understanding, owning our part quickly, and pursuing reconciliation with humility. It means doing what we can to make peace without trying to control someone else’s response.And sometimes, even when you do all of that, peace is not received.That is where surrender, prayer, and wise counsel matter.We keep coming back to the beauty of intergenerational discipleship because God never intended for us to process conflict, rejection, and confusion alone. Sometimes the wisest thing we can do is bring our situation to a mature believer—someone who can help us see clearly, pray with us, and keep us rooted in both truth and love.Then we sit with Jesus’ words about persecution and being reviled and allow Him to reframe the pain. He does not dismiss the hurt, but He does invite us into a deeper perspective: sometimes rejection for His name is not evidence that something is wrong—it is evidence that we belong to Him.These hard moments can become holy places where the Holy Spirit grows perseverance, discernment, and even joy.We close with a quiet “connect with God” moment and two simple questions to carry into your day:God, what do You want me to know?And what do You want me to do?If this episode encouraged you, share it with a friend, subscribe, and leave a review so more women and girls can grow closer to Jesus and each other.You can find the So Blessed Bible App reading plan here. Give to Brave Girls Gather
