Ministry can be a real pain sometimes....because we have to deal with people who are loaded up with baggage.
In the Acts of the Apostles we see the disciples suffering.
In Chapter 5 we see that the Jewish religious were overcome with jealousy (5:17) towards Jesus' disciples and so they started having them put in prison.
They were brought before the religious council and ended up being flogged and ordered not to speak in the name of Jesus again!
Their reaction? See verse 41.
"The apostles left the Sanhedrin, rejoicing because they had been counted worthy of suffering disgrace for the Name"
I pray that I might become that "grace full"
Have a great day,
Peter Clark.
