John 15:18 If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first.
Sometimes we feel like the whole world is against us – or at least what we can see of the world!
It may well be true to some extent – the world is not interested in us and what we do unless it is going to interfere with what the world wants!
People are just the same – they don’t care for us unless we work against them, then they do anything to stop us.
A lot of this showed up in Jesus’ life; the reality of what had been going on against God for many years, and what continues to happen!
