What blessings await you when people hate you and exclude you and mock you and curse you as evil because you follow the Son of Man. (NLT) -Luke 6:22 It's true, being a follower of Christ is not always a popular decision, and it may bring troubles. Like rooting for the losing football team, you may be mocked, excluded, and cursed. But when the fourth quarter comes and suddenly the losing football team has the upper hand, isn't that a glorious win? Those loyal to the team are rewarded in victory. Take heart in knowing that God blesses those who endure trials for being a Christian. Download this app to get your daily devotions: http://bit.ly/16uZrQ5
