Gospel Recording Artist MARY MARY released a song entitled: "It's the God in Me". Well as that title may mean everything in the World to me, I've discovered it doesn't always mean someting to others. As a Child of God and devoted follower of Jesus Christ, it is hard for me to remain comfortable in Ungodly and Carnal Environments, and that's simply because of the God in Me! In fact, this should be the case for all believers.
I've discovered that ungodly people can know Who you are in Christ and still have no reverence or respect for that position and, that simply being because they have no respect or reverence for GOD. As a Minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, it doesn't exempt me from being spiritually and morally disrespected or Unreverenced (I had to make sure that was a word and it is) and thus the bottom line is this...
Don't expect people to reverence or respect you, if they don't respect or reverence the GOD in YOU, but even with that said, don't waiver from Who you are in Christ, hang in there, because here's the bottom line out of Philippians 2:9-11 (NIV) where it says, "Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father"
