Today’s Thought “Taking It on the Chin” G. Ward

Romans 15:3 For even Christ did not please Himself, but as it is written: “The taunts of those who taunt You have fallen on Me.”

 

Denial and selflessness are the predominant, pronounced tags of Catholic Nuns versus perceived followers of Christ and whereas the latter group’s characterization appears entirely truthful, it’s because there’s been great lack to always defer to God’s Word in everything and whereas those directives invite any to know “few” acquiesce to what it says (the identifier of true belief – Matthew 7:21-23, Luke 6:46, James 2:18-19), along with doing so while devoted to Jesus as Lord and determined to bring all glory and honor to HIS Name, we know that HIS endurance having withstood greatest reproach, assured us of a similar visitation (John 15:18-20), whereby we’re grateful to HIM for the peace HE left us and the endurance HE granted us. May HE be forever praised!
