It would be nearly impossible for most wealthy and healthy Christians to understand this, but many people in the world are actively being persecuted for putting thier faith in Jesus. Most of us never face anything worse than a gossip at church or a non-believer at work or school. If we do come up against something difficult, many Christians just plain quit! Can you see why it’s often important for the Lord to allow us to be persecuted by Satan so we can grow in our faith? Stand firm in the little things and you’ll grow strong for the day the tough stuff comes! God needs us to be strong for others! “Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you the crown of life.” Jesus of Nazareth (Revelation 2:10b) In Christ, PastorJimKilby @Kilbin8er Jim@JamesKilby.com
