DAILY MANNA FOR TODAY
Many people assume that every form of suffering is a punishment from God. Because of this, some fall into self-condemnation, self-pity, or even depression. However, Scripture teaches that not all suffering is the result of wrongdoing. Sometimes, God allows difficulties to test faith and build Christlike character.
Apostle Peter reminds believers that living in a fallen world means we may occasionally suffer unjust treatment, even from people in authority such as employers. The believer’s calling is not retaliation but Christlike endurance. When we suffer for doing right—not for our own mistakes—such patience is pleasing to God.
Jesus Christ is our perfect example. Though sinless, He endured insults, injustice, and the cross without revenge or complaint. Through His suffering, humanity received salvation. In the same way, believers are called to reflect His spirit of humility, submission, and steadfast faith.
When Christians respond to unfair treatment with grace:
God is glorified
Other believers are strengthened
Unbelievers may be drawn to Christ
Therefore, instead of seeing unjust suffering as strange, believers should view it as an opportunity to walk in the footsteps of Christ.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
An accurate reading of a person’s character is obtained in challenging situations.
