Everyone has Experienced Rejection

 Everyone has experienced the pain of rejection, betrayal, and abandonment at some point in their life. These have the potential to leave deep wounds in the soul and lead to chronic fear and anxiety.

Soul wounds are real and must be given over to the One who promises to never leave or forsake you; the One who promises, “I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”

 Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age. Matthew 28:20

Pause and pray, “Father, I choose to trust that you will never leave me, never forsake me, and will be with me always. When feelings rise up and whisper to me, ‘You are utterly alone,’ I will arrest them with the truth of your word and stand on your promises. Amen.’” – Pastor Jimmy

 Jimmy Pruitt is a believer and follower of Jesus Christ. As an idealist, his words are filtered through his spirituality with the expectation that he will encourage and inspire people to “Live Up in a Down World.” He is committed to being an authentic person in all he does. Because everyone has been through something, or is currently struggling, Jimmy believes the proper response to life is humility; it is the signature of Jesus bringing forth both pain and glory. He and his way better half, Annette, have been married for30 years. Agreeing their family is amazing, placing “Fun” in dys-Fun-ctional. They have three adult children and seven grandchildren that bless their lives beyond what they could ever dream. He is currently Lead Pastor at Bridge Church Fredericksburg, TX, and has started a new podcast titled: “Living Up in a Down Word – Making Faith real for the rest of us.”
