1 Peter 2:20. For what glory is it, if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.

We all, from time to time, suffer from the wrong we do. That's life!

Yet there are times when in doing and for doing right we suffer.

At those moments we must, with extreme caution, examine our response.

We are called  to patiently endure. Not to quit God's calling or course for our lives.

Today let’s  anticipate  that suffering is the expected companion of a righteous life.

In doing so let us commit to continue doing what is right and responding with a Christ-like heart.

Hint: One of the ways to keep our hearts right is to pray for those who treat us wrongly.  This will help keep our hearts from bitterness and our spirit  from anger.
