I Hope You SUFFER S19e19 1peter3:8

Yes, I said, I hope you suffer.  If you are resisting temptations, resisting bad ways of thinking, and bad behaviors, it will be hard. You will suffer.

And, I hope you will receive and give great compassion, tenderheartedness, unity, and brotherly love towards all who are suffering too.  In short I hope you love the brotherhood and the brotherhood loves you.  As I like to say, "Love the Knucklehood," because we are all relative knuckleheads in the church.  

Our difficulties resisting sin and against circumstance ought to DRAW US TOGETHER IN COMPASSION  rather than push us apart.  Thank you for drawing in today.  Thank you for Being With Me. bewithme.us to come back tomorrow.
