We hear the deep pain and frustration in your words, and we grieve with you over the suffering and injustice you describe. However, we must lovingly but firmly address the dangerous misunderstandings in your heart about who Jesus is and how He works. The accusations you’ve made against Him are not true, and they reveal a heart that has been deeply wounded—yet also deceived by bitterness and false beliefs. Let us speak truth into this, for your own sake and for the glory of God.
First, Jesus does *not* show favoritism, nor does He neglect anyone based on nationality, ethnicity, or status. The Scriptures declare clearly that God is impartial and loves *all* people, calling them to repentance and faith in Christ. Peter, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, said:
*"Truly I perceive that God doesn’t show favoritism; but in every nation he who fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him."* (Acts 10:34-35, WEB)
And Paul writes:
*"There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus."* (Galatians 3:28, WEB)
Jesus Himself demonstrated this during His earthly ministry. He healed the Roman centurion’s servant (Matthew 8:5-13), ministered to the Samaritan woman (John 4), and commanded His disciples to take the Gospel to *all* nations (Matthew 28:19). His heart is for *all* people—locals and foreigners alike—to come to repentance and faith in Him. The problem is not that Jesus neglects you; the problem is that sin and broken systems in this world create suffering, and Satan—the accuser—whispers lies to turn your pain into bitterness against God.
Second, your suggestion that you can "do whatever you want" because you feel neglected is a dangerous path. That is the voice of rebellion, not freedom. The Bible warns:
*"Don’t be deceived! ‘Evil companionships corrupt good morals.’ Wake up rightfully, and don’t sin, for some have no knowledge of God. I say this to your shame."* (1 Corinthians 15:33-34, WEB)
If you are feeling abandoned, the answer is *not* to harden your heart and turn away from God. That will only lead to more destruction. Instead, cry out to Him in honesty—even in your anger—and ask Him to reveal His true character to you. The Psalms are filled with raw, honest prayers of people who felt forgotten, yet they still turned to God:
*"My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from helping me, and from the words of my groaning? My God, I cry in the daytime, but you don’t answer; in the night season, and am not silent."* (Psalm 22:1-2, WEB)
David, who wrote those words, did not stay in despair. He continued to seek God, and God remained faithful. You, too, must choose: will you let bitterness rule you, or will you bring your pain to the One who can truly heal you?
Third, your words about being "equally yoked" reveal another serious issue. If you are referring to relationships, the Bible is *very* clear that believers in Christ must *not* be unequally yoked with unbelievers (2 Corinthians 6:14). Marriage is a sacred covenant before God, and He commands His people to marry *only* those who share their faith in Christ. If you are struggling with loneliness or feeling overlooked in the area of marriage, we understand that pain. But the answer is *not* to compromise God’s standards. Instead, seek Him first, and trust that His timing is perfect. Jesus said:
*"But seek first God’s Kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well."* (Matthew 6:33, WEB)
As for the struggles you describe—unemployment, government policies, and the suffering of locals—these are real and painful issues. But they are *not* the fault of Jesus. This world is broken by sin, and until Christ returns, there will be injustice, corruption, and hardship. Our call as believers is to trust God in the midst of it, to pray for wisdom and justice, and to be His hands and feet in showing love and compassion to those around us. The apostle Peter wrote to believers suffering under unjust rulers:
*"Therefore let all the house of Israel know certainly that God has made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you crucified."* (Acts 2:36, WEB)
Wait—no, let us give you the correct verse for your situation:
*"Therefore submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord’s sake: whether to the king, as supreme, or to governors, as sent by him for vengeance on evildoers and for praise to those who do well. For this is the will of God, that by well-doing you should put to silence the ignorance of foolish men: as free, and not using your freedom for a cloak of wickedness, but as bondservants of God."* (1 Peter 2:13-16, WEB)
This does *not* mean we accept injustice passively. But it *does* mean we trust God’s sovereignty, pray for those in authority (1 Timothy 2:1-2), and seek to live righteously even in difficult circumstances.
Lastly, your words about foreigners taking rights and privileges reveal a heart struggling with resentment. While it is right to seek justice and fair treatment, we must guard against hatred or blame toward any group of people. Remember, Jesus commanded:
*"You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you, that you may be children of your Father who is in heaven."* (Matthew 5:43-45, WEB)
This is not easy, but it is the way of Christ.
Now, let us pray for you:
Heavenly Father, we lift up this dear one to You, knowing that their heart is broken and their spirit is wounded. Lord, the pain they carry is deep, and the lies they have believed about You are grievous. We ask that You would break through the bitterness and reveal Your true nature to them—that You are a God who sees, who loves, and who is just. Father, forgive them for the accusations they have made against You, for they do not know what they are saying. Softens their heart, Lord, and draw them back to Yourself.
We rebuke the spirit of bitterness, resentment, and rebellion that has taken root. By the power of the Holy Spirit, uproot these lies and replace them with Your truth. Remind them that You are close to the brokenhearted (Psalm 34:18) and that You have not forgotten them. Lord, if they have been sinned against—whether by people, systems, or circumstances—bring healing and justice in Your way and Your timing.
If they are struggling with loneliness or the desire for marriage, we ask that You would be their comfort and their portion. Help them to seek You first, trusting that You will provide all they need. Protect them from the temptation to compromise Your standards out of desperation or anger.
For the struggles they face—unemployment, injustice, and the suffering around them—we ask for Your provision and wisdom. Raise up godly leaders who will govern with integrity. Give them strength to endure and opportunities to be a light in the darkness.
Most of all, Lord, we pray that they would encounter You in a fresh and powerful way. Reveal to them the cross of Christ, where Your love was demonstrated for *all* people—locals and foreigners alike. Show them that salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to men, by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12).
In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
Finally, we urge you: do not let your heart grow hard. Turn to Jesus, repent of the bitterness and false accusations, and let Him heal you. He is the only One who can bring true justice and true peace. If you have not yet surrendered your life to Christ, we beg you to do so today. Confess your sins, believe in His death and resurrection for you, and receive Him as your Lord. There is no other way to the Father (John 14:6). If you have already trusted in Christ, then cling to Him now more than ever. He has not abandoned you. Run to Him, not from Him.
