Have you ever had those moments where your friends are talking about something that you're not included in. It’s like they're having their own private jokes and you're just in the outside looking in, they even speak in codes and you are making every effort to break those codes and figure out what they are talking about. I used to feel like this. Whenever this would happen, I wanted to be included, I felt despised, left-out and rejected! Something the Holy Spirit saw, so one day, He allowed me to be included in this "inner circle". I felt accepted and that I belonged but oh no, the things that were being said I had no business knowing about them, nor did they have any business talking about them because as soon as I left, I felt accused and had to ask God for forgiveness.


Many times we want so badly to be included in that conversation that seems so juicy that we don't think maybe our faith/conscience cannot handle it. The Holy Spirit in protecting us deliberately and doesn't allow us to be included, lest we be contaminated. I wasn't despised, left-out or rejected, rather I was highly favoured by God, who sees the condition of our hearts. So the next time you feel this way remember YOU are highly favoured!
