DAILY?READINGS: 1 Chronicles 13-14; Ezekiel 14-15; John 5:1-23
For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example that ye should follow his steps. 1 Peter 2:21
Wherefore let them that suffer according to the will of God commit the keeping of their souls to him in well doing, as unto a faithful Creator. 1 Peter 4:19
Suffering is part of life, but for the believer it can be an opportunity to deliver an incredible message. When the child of God learns that his suffering is a calling, it changes the whole dynamic of the experience. The knowledge that we can “suffer according to the will of God” gives peace in the storm. —Sid Halsband
The heirs of salvation, I know from His Word,
Through much tribulation must follow their Lord.
—J. Newton
