Joel Osteen

Paul said in Romans, “So what if they don’t believe. Will their unbelief make your faith of no effect?” Sometimes we want people to believe in us that are never going to be for us. We long for their affirmation, for our family to cheer us on, a friend to encourage us, but it’s just the opposite. You have to say like Paul, “So what if they don’t believe. They’re not going to talk me out of believing. I still love them, but I’m going to be deaf to their unbelief.” These are tests we have to pass.
