Not a Very uplifting title today, but unfortunately it is true. We face storms every day. I have some thoughts that we as Christians need to be aware of:

  1. Be prepared to suffer.
  2. Rejoice in suffering. You are sharing with jesus.
  3. The Bible says suffering is a gift.
  4. Suffering for Jesus brings future glory.
  5. Let suffering purify your heart.
  6. Be more concerned for God’s glory than for your relief.
  7. You are never alone in your suffering.
  8. Entrust yourself to God.

The reason I am approaching this post with these thoughts is that there is a growing dislike for the church. I have had people tell me that it is wrong that the church doesn’t pay taxes. I have had others think that Christians are “stuckup,” and look down on others. Of course none of this is true, and we need to be strong in these attacks. We don’t need to get angry, but be firm in our beliefs.

How are you doing. Are you strong in your belief? Is it hard to continue your faith? Remember, Jesus paid the supreme sacrifice. He went through more torture we can imagine, and He died for us. The little harassments that we get is nothing compared to what He did for us.

Remember:

You are never alone,

You are never forsaken,

You are never unloved.

And above all…never, ever, give up!
