When rejection hurts...

Nobody likes to be rejected.
But when it happens,it leaves a bitter feeling,a feeling of failure..That was happened with Caim of the Bible,this week we studied about him in a bible group,he was a man who worked with hard earth,not really kind,more pratical,on the other hand his brother Abel was kind and liked to express his feeling openly,so when God asked a sacrifice we see a little competition,not to win money or respect,but to win God's approval.But there was a difference Caim took just waht is left,Abel was careful to see the perfect lamp and had to do a work hard to make an altar,the end of story is when God saw both of sacrificies he was pleased with just one:Abel's.
What Caim felt that moment?To be rejected by God,the creator of the universe didn't like his sacrifice,and from nowhere an anger,envy and jealously so badly that the only thing that he could ever think about it was to killing his brother,and he actually did.
But what about us,sometimes we're so angry with God because he has given so many things to other people that we're tempted to think that we've been forgotten,those moments the anger is so fierce and questions start:Why me?What I did wrong?Why God is allowing this?But God gave an answer to Caim:If you did the good,you wouldn't be accepted?Sometimes what we need to do is just forget  about the cost,the work that we'll have,we need to do a sacrifice that we meant to do,atittude with a meaning,that way our God is gonna be with a big smile in his face saying:"Well done."
