Suffering For Christ |
1 Peter 4:12-13(NIV) "Dear friends, do not be surprised at the painful trails you are suffering, as though something strange were happening to you. But rejoice that you participate in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed when his glory is revealed." Christ suffered much for us to be saved, healed, and delivered. Therefore, as true belivers of Christ, we to will go through suffering in this life. The bible says that we must go through the suffering as Christ did for us. No suffering is not good when we are going through it but it teaches how to be like Christ in our sufferings. The bible says that Christ never said a word during His suffering for us because He knew the purpose of His suffering. Do you know that there is a purpose for your suffering? Yes, there is a reason why God allowed suffering in our lifes. God allows it so that we can become who He has called us to be in Him. " Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the victor's crown, the life God has promised to those who love Him. James 1:12 (NIV) God is with You!
