1 Peter 2:20 (NKJV) 20 For what credit is it if, when you are beaten for your faults, you take it patiently? But when you do good and suffer, if you take it patiently, this is commendable before God.
Have we ever had to experience suffering for something we did not deserve? We knew it was unfair but we had to take it and not say a word about it.
It’s not easy to keep still or to keep the right attitude when dealing with that type of behavior or persecution aimed against us. That is a very hard thing to deal with and it takes great strength and discipline. God understands that and He will help us through it.
Isaiah 40:29 (NKJV) 29 He gives power to the weak, And to those who have no might He increases strength.
The suffering we go through and how we handle ourselves while going through it shows God how much we love Him, when we choose not to fight or argue, but rather to do the right thing, by being patient and letting God handle it in His time and way.
Let Him give us the strength we need to endure it.
