Like people won't let you join in their reindeer games? Maybe it's just me?

John 15:18
"If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first."
John 15:19
If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you.
We should not be surprised to be left out.

-ignores the Christian's only sign- Living in the land of christians, I can't see how this is possible for you guys. I cant turn around and scratch my rear end without running into your reindeer games that I'm now allowed to be a part of.

Who are you leaving out of your reindeer games? Alienation is a human condition, not unique to Born Again Christians. I'm not a Christian, but I thought you should know.

Yes it does feel like that. I believe in God dearly, especially now. (A long story lol). But at school, people know I'm the quiet girl, and they always have to make their side jokes, about how quiet I am, and that I'm one of God's little angel, I tell them, its the truth. Why should I have to go around doing the stupid things that they do, when I can be faithful amongst God. Which those things aren't worth it, because they are always getting in trouble, and I'm totally not like that. But don't feel left out, because when we go to heaven, the reward is going to be so GREAT!

Don't worry about it. You belong to Christ, they don't have anything that you don't have. You already belong to the coolest group you can join: father, son and holy spirit! Don't get you feelings of self respect or personal worth from a particular person or group.
" Don't take pride in following a particular leader, everything belongs to you"-1Corinthians 3:21

No, because I feel they are being left out. I regret living 35 years before I found the joy of the Lord.

i get left out of the things i don't want to be involved in.
people don't tell dirty jokes around me, or ask me to do inapropriate things. not because i'm so special, because i have jesus living inside me and they can tell that something in me won't stand for perverse things.
so, yes, sometimes i do feel left out. but hang in there girl! it's all worth it in the end. besides, once you're involved in the 'worldly realm', it's no fun. "be in the world but not of the world."

Yes. The reality though, is that trying to 'belong' is what screwed up my life so badly. There are worse things than being left out.
This I believe;
