John 7:1-10 (Amplified Bible)  1AFTER THIS, Jesus went from place to place in Galilee, for He would not travel in Judea because the Jews were seeking to kill Him.     2Now the Jewish Feast of Tabernacles was drawing near.     3So His brothers said to Him, Leave here and go into Judea, so that Your disciples [there] may also see the works that You do. [This is no place for You.]     4For no one does anything in secret when he wishes to be conspicuous and secure publicity. If You [must] do these things [if You must act like this], show Yourself openly and make Yourself known to the world!     5For [even] His brothers did not believe in or adhere to or trust in or rely on Him either.     6Whereupon Jesus said to them, My time (opportunity) has not come yet; but any time is suitable for you and your opportunity is ready any time [is always here].     7The world cannot [be expected to] hate you, but it does hate Me because I denounce it for its wicked works and reveal that its doings are evil.     8Go to the Feast yourselves. I am not [yet] going up to the Festival, because My time is not ripe. [My term is not yet completed; it is not time for Me to go.]     9Having said these things to them, He stayed behind in Galilee.     10But afterward, when His brothers had gone up to the Feast, He went up also, not publicly [not with a caravan], but by Himself quietly and as if He did not wish to be observed. Even His brothers did not believe in Him.  No one knows rejection better than Jesus; but He did not let rejection prevent Him from fulfilling the Will of God.  Sometimes it will be our families.  Sometimes our friends.  Sometimes the religious community.  Sometimes the world. It is often discouraging; it is often frightening.  But we must persevere.  We must do as God directs and not be dependent on man’s opinions of our Word from God. Ask God to guide You and He will.  He has promised us the Holy Spirit to lead, comfort, and convict.  Let the Holy Spirit do His Work in You. **Lord Jesus, I am weak.  I am easily swayed by the opinions and criticisms of men.  Forgive me.  Fill me with Your Spirit that I might possess a spirit of power and of love and of a sound mind.  Thank You, Jesus.  Amen. If this is not a problem of yours, then praise God.  Pray for someone who does have this problem.
