Life can be tough some times, heartaches, rogue emotions in us and others, even acts of harm against us, for no reason. People scoff at that like I did, but the reality is that when you avoid someone because their lifestyle no longer fits in with your new life based on the teachings of Jesus Christ, they can become very offended. You still respect them but they cannot handle it with you living a clean life and them still struggling and being overwhelmed with their sin life. If only they would realize that complete surrender to Jesus is the only way.
Proverbs 12:21 No harm overtakes the righteous, but the wicked have their fill of trouble.
No matter what they say about you or do to you, you always have the relationship with Jesus, as long as you don't slide back into that old lifestyle. Sharing Jesus' teachings with them works, but if their guilt is greater than their will to come clean then the carnage in their life becomes greater and unfortunately they can take that out on you.
Their anguish is probably heightened when we continue to display the peace and joy awarded us through Jesus Christ, a perk when you have a personal relationship with Him.
