I want to know Christ—yes, to know the power of his resur­rec­tion and participation in his sufferings. . . .
Philippians 3:10

If we are honest, we’ll admit that we do not usually, if ever, hope for suffering. We may be eager to experience the power of Christ’s resurrection, but we are less passionate about wanting to experience the agony of his death. Yet in several places in the New Testament Paul expresses a desire to share in the sufferings of Christ.

Across church history, many Christians have suffered for Jesus, whether they wanted to or not. To this day, parts of the church are persecuted.

Physical suffering may or may not come, but if it does, Paul tells us that it only draws us closer to Jesus. Draw near to Him!!
