As I was reading my Bible a few scriptures really began to speak to me so I want to share them... Now, who will want to harm you if you are eager to do good? But even if you suffer for doing what is right, God will reward you for it. So don’t worry or be afraid of their threats. Instead, you must worship Christ as Lord of your life. And if someone asks about your Christian hope, always be ready to explain it. But do this in a gentle and respectful way. Keep your conscience clear. Then if people speak against you, they will be ashamed when they see what a good life you live because you belong to Christ. Remember, it is better to suffer for doing good, if that is what God wants, than to suffer for doing wrong! Christ suffered for our sins once for all time. He never sinned, but he died for sinners to bring you safely home to God. He suffered physical death, but he was raised to life in the Spirit. (1 Peter 3:13-18 NLT) The Holy Spirit is really convicting me this morning of this. For those of you who truly know me, you know I use to be a fighter, so some times I still wanna be quick to fight and He is telling me no. I must continue to do what is right even if it means i have to suffer a little. my reward will come from the Lord! Wow....
