Suffering For God
Do you feel that you have "suffered" for doing what is right ? Do you feel that or have been told by others that you are “unforgiveable” ? I’ve got some great news !
1 Peter 3:17-19 (New International Version)
17It is better, if it is God's will, to suffer for doing good than for doing evil. 18For Christ died for sins once for all, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive by the Spirit, 19through whom[a] also he went and preached to the spirits in prison"
So keep doing “what is right”……
1 Peter 3:13-15 (New International Version)
13Who is going to harm you if you are eager to do good? 14But even if you should suffer for what is right, you are blessed. "Do not fear what they fear[a]; do not be frightened."[b] 15But in your hearts set apart Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect,”
It’s really very simple…….and available to all
Romans 10:9 (New International Version)
9That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
I hope you are “Sweetly Broken” for Jesus Christ...
