Food for thought....

1 peter 4:16 - If you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed, but praise God that you bear that name.

Suffering is never fun…..but I guess it depends on what you’re suffering for. Suffering for Christ builds character and further grounds us in Him. It teaches us to fully rely on Him for all of our wants, needs, and desires. I think suffering for the gospel exposes our true passion for our Savior. It can be a learning and growing experience.

So when suffering comes along, let’s rejoice that we have an opportunity to deepen our relationship with the King!

Easier said than done….but it’s a process…and we’re all in it together!

Your Brother in Christ…
