A person’s very life is affected by the powerful forces of rejection and acceptance. The harshest language possible from the soul of one person to the soul of another person is the language of rejection. The sweetest language possible from the soul of one person to the soul of another person is the language of acceptance. Children who get unconditional acceptance at home aren’t nearly as likely to ruin their lives by looking for it elsewhere. Christians should seek to give acceptance to everyone whom God brings across their paths. A smile is a key tool that communicates acceptance. Christians who reject others usually do so because they haven’t learned to distinguish between acceptance and approval. Jesus didn’t approve of the Samaritan woman having five husbands, but He accepted her as a woman who needed His help.
