Reflection
The kind of suffering which really matters is righteous suffering; suffering for the sake of righteousness and for the glory of God. The Bible says in Galatians 5:24 – "And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires."
Following Jesus Christ requires crucifying the flesh completely. Crucifying the flesh, is putting the flesh to death. The spirit comes fully alive at the death of our flesh.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, we thank You for Your grace and mercy that abound in our lives. By the help of Your Holy Spirit, we put our flesh to death daily for Your glory while our spirit remains alive and aglow in You in Jesus’ name. Amen.
