You’ve heard the expression, “Falling on deaf ears.” The idea is that some people do not want to hear anything contrary to their worldview. There is no level of logic, reason, or facts that will change their opinions or ideas. What responsibility does this leave with us then? None.
If someone else is not interested in what you
have to say, don’t bother. There is no need to force a conversation, to prove
yourself, or to prove them wrong. “Making” someone understand is not our
responsibility. All we can do is love them despite everything negative involved
in the situation.
You aren’t even
responsible for making them love you in return. The only thing you are
responsible for is to love them and give them no reason to hate you. Just
remember, Jesus did everything exactly right and he was still hated by those who
should have known better.
