Jesus prays for the Father to keep us us safe, but not out of the difficulties of life. Nothing can separate us from Christ, but we still live in the world and sometimes things get difficult. Christian, you're in the world and the world will hate you, but Jesus still wants you to go to the world and share the gospel with them.
Questions:
1. Do you feel like an outsider in the world? Why?
2. What does it look like to go into the world, knowing you won't be accepted by the world?
