"go where you're celebrated not where you're tolerated"

Regardless of where it comes from, it is interesting to consider. Although, I think in some cases we need to go where we are not celebrated...
I don't know, that quote deserves days of deep discussion.
Peace sister. I hope exams are going well.
 
haha.. I figured Matt had gotten it from "somewhere"... I was praying this week and it was all that came to me, it's stirred up some reflection this week..I like it and I don't know why.
 
If you're celebrated, aren't you tolerated as well?

"Some times you wanna go
where everybody knows your name,
and they're always glad you came."
-- Cheers theme song
 
Shawn- no... it means don't go where people will "just put up with you" (your ideas, the way you do things)- go where they're excited about them and where above all they're excited about you!
 
I'm still going
 
where you're celebrated or where you're tolerated?
 
Either one, but I'd prefer celebrated.

The more I learn...the less I know...

"...we also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope. And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us." Romans 5:3-5
