Tuesday May 6th, 1 Peter 4: 12 Dear friends, do not be surprised at the painful trial you are suffering, as though something strange were happening to you. 13 But rejoice that you participate in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed when his glory is revealed. 14 If you are insulted because of the name of Christ, you are blessed, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you. Being a child of God is not easy. The empire does not like it. Being a child of God calls one to care for the least, lost and lonely, the empire would just as soon forget. It means speaking a word against the concentration of power and profit and for justice. It means being counter-cultural. When you get flack for it, send up a yahoo- the kingdom is showing through.
