Rejoice in persecution

Recommended – 1

This is the first of what may become an occasional series in which I recommend creators and their creations when they produce things I really like and have found useful.

Today I’ve chosen an article by Chris Dryden who writes at ‘Life with CD’. Here’s a quote from his piece:

Rejoicing in persecution is not about denying pain or pretending hardship doesn’t hurt. It’s about lifting our eyes beyond the immediate struggle to see the eternal reward that awaits us. Our suffering for Christ is not wasted; it is a testimony of our allegiance to Him and a pathway to deeper intimacy with our Saviour.

Read Chris’s full article on his webpage.

It’s a useful read, in fact all of Chris’s articles are worth a look. For those of us attempting to live like Jesus, there’s a lot of thought-provoking stuff to read and consider here.

If you’re reading out of a more general interest you’ll still find much to value, perhaps as life lessons or just to understand why Jesus is a person of such long-standing interest to so many people.

Useful? Interesting?
