06/03 1 Peter 4:1-2
So then, since Christ suffered physical pain, you must arm yourselves with the same attitude he had, and be ready to suffer, too. For if you have suffered physically for Christ, you have finished with sin. 2 You won’t spend the rest of your lives chasing your own desires, but you will be anxious to do the will of God.
REALLY?
We live in an instant society. The idea of pain brings up images of things we really don’t want to experience yet the picture here is that real growth, real maturity is developed in suffering. This is alien to our ears. Lord I believe help my unbelief.
