Support through suffering

1 Peter 4.12-14; 5.6-11

Peter reassures the Early Church communities that Christ is with them and cares for them in their suffering. Believers should be humble, resist evil and give their anxieties to God. Those who are steadfast in their faith will ultimately be rewarded.

Today’s passages remind us that whatever we face, we can withstand testing times with support from God and those around us.
