• Rightly Suffering For His Name

Sep 24

Posted by Shade of the Moriah Tree

for Christ's sake

GOD GRANT US the wisdom in our trials to rightly distinguish and extinguish self-pity from sorrow; to suffer for Christ’s cause rather than from our own folly; to know affliction void of self-infliction and the grace to yield fruit that bears only His name.

– M.A. Williams

Scripture Ref: 2 Corinthians 12:10; 1 Peter 4:14-16
