Let me share from 1 Peter chapter 4. The second
part of this chapter is largely about suffering.
Verse 16 says, Bottom line is this. There is
sorrow and suffering on the highway of holiness,
and we will go through difficulty. How? How do
you go through difficulty? Well, one key action
point is to glorify God. If you're going through
difficulty for God, bring him glory, you win.
When things are hard, you glorify the name of
the Lord, you win. I submit to you that when
things are hard, you win. God is great. Say,
God is great. Thank you, Lord. God is great.
God is great. And live it. That's what we're
called to. Don't be ashamed.
