Suffering For Christ

When we suffer for standing up for Christ and His Word, we will naturally feel weary and weak afterwards.

But we must remind ourselves that even though our body and mind may feel weak and tired from the struggle, God sees us as strong in Him. We stood up and fought for Christ's righteousness, when we could have turned around and ran away. We may have battle wounds to endure, but it is more important we have God.

"That's why I take pleasure in my weaknesses,

and in the insults, hardships, persecutions,

and troubles that I suffer for Christ.

For when I am weak,

then I am strong."

2 Corinthians 12:10 (NLT)

Like Paul, it is always a great honour to serve our King, no matter what the outcome is.
