Suffering for Christ // Kingdom reward
Some will revile us, and we tend to avoid persecution, challenge, testing. Expecting to take a stand or lose a friend to stand accepting persecution.
Be glad we are like the prophets when we are reviled for Christs name.

A blessed life = living the Gospel
Stop playing a character to fit in... share the gospel. Show mercy.
