Good Morning Girlz!!! Hope everyone is doing well. It is h-o-t here. Hot and windy. Gotta love West Texas!
S - "For it is commendable if someone bears up under the pain of unjust suffering because they are conscious of God. But how is it to your credit if you receive a beating for doing wrong and endure it? But if you suffer for doing good and you endure it, this is commendable before God. To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps." 19-21
O - Jesus never said life would be fair. His time here on earth certainly wasn't. We will be called to endure ridicule for the sake of obedience to our Lord.
A - I wouldn't say I have ever been beaten for doing what is good, but enduring hardtimes for the sake of doing good; I have experienced. Never fun. Never seems fair in the moment. Thank goodness we have The Word to show us examples of Christ doing good even when others didn't get it.
P - I pray for perseverance to continue keeping on. When struggles come, I want to be strong to stick to the straight and narrow. I pray I do good even in the face of sufferings.
