When Following Jesus Gets Lonely | Being Set Apart
Description
Have you ever felt like following Jesus makes you the “weird one” in the room? Like you’re left out of family gatherings, friend groups, or opportunities because of your faith? I’ve been there too.
While reading the Old Testament, I kept coming back to the Levites, the tribe God set apart to serve Him. They didn’t get land like everyone else, but God Himself was their portion. From the outside, it may have looked like they were missing out, but in reality, they had the greatest gift of all: closeness with God.
In this episode, we’ll talk about what that means for us today. The same presence that once rested on the Levites now lives in us through the Holy Spirit. So if you’ve been feeling lonely, misunderstood, or left out because of your faith, remember this: you’re not rejected, you’re chosen. You’re not cast out, you’re set apart.
