Suffering for Others

Suffering for Others

I now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up in my flesh what is lacking in the afflictions of Christ, for the sake of His body, which is the church. (Colossians 1:24)

Ministry is costly. When the heavenly Father wanted to save His creation from sin, He could find no other way except the sacrifice of His Son (Rom. 5:8). Scripture gives a stark picture of the price our Savior paid to obtain our salvation: He is despised and rejected by men, A Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief

Brother Real

Have you ever wondered sometimes , "How they do that ??" "These guys can read minds man !! .. Mine !! "

Are you presently experiencing hardship because of the ministry to which God has called you? Have you begun to wonder if the price you are paying is too great?


Needless to say , I am now , as I type , smack dab right in the middle of it ! (or so it seems at times ) , but as far as the price being too great ?? Brother , a Man willingly died for me so I can live and by my life He can continue on Living . He told me if you want to continue on living like I am , you do the same as I do .

Sticks and stones may break my bones ....

Luv ya brother

In Christ , our Lord

Wow real...beautiful words you shared...and you are right...it seems today that the more one steps out to minister...the less people want to hear...and we are often rejected over and over and over again...to the point some say I'm just not interested in hearing about Jesus. It just floors me. But it's honestly not about how many times we are rejected is it? It's about if out of all those rejections we reach just 1...and only 1 it's worth the 100's, 1000's or even millions of times we are rejected while trying to share...yes it's not easy to keep ourselves encouraged during these times of rejection...especially when you step out time and time again...but the joy of all the angels when we finally are able to reach just one with Truth...is worth it all.

luv ya real
Do you know my Jesus? Do you know my friend? Have you heard He loves you? If not, I'd like to introduce you.
