Jesus continues) “Blessed are you when men revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account. Rejoice and be glad for your reward is great in heaven, for so men persecuted the prophets who were before you.”
Matthew 4:11, 12
Lord, I must admit that I can’t and don’t rejoice in the circumstance that You talk about in this verse…..reviled, persecuted, evil, lies…. Oh yes I know my rewards are in heaven but I still can’t rejoice. I love You Lord but I still can’t rejoice.
Thank you Lord for giving us the assurance that heaven IS our home.
Thank You Lord.
