2 Corinthians 4: 16

FEAST OF BLESSED WILLIAM CARTER – 11th JANUARY
January 11, 2024
THE 10th OF JANUARY
WE CAN LEARN FROM JESUS’ EXAMPLE HOW TO OVERCOME HARDSHIPS
For consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners against Himself, lest you become weary and discouraged in your souls.
Hebrews 12:3
In Jesus we have the perfect example. If the Son of God had to face so much opposition and even from those who pretended to be God’s servants who were so much against Him, we should not be surprised that so many are against us and our faith too.
Do you remember the sarcasm, mockery and even persecution that you endured when you first began your Christian life? We all had and some still have to face the opposition from others to some extent. In the beginning, we were all so enthusiastic about sharing the gospel and seeing the whole world saved. We still want them all to have the abundant life in Jesus that we have. And for that, we have to teach God’s word tirelessly.
SUGGESTED PRAYER
Dear Father God, please help me love You with all that I am and to be ready to tell others about You, every time You give me the chance to do it. Please, even today, give me at least one person willing to hear about You or who needs prayer, for You to minister to them. Please Holy Spirit, refill me with Your presence, so that You can minister through me! Glory and Honor to You dear Lord, and to Your Holy Name. Amen.
