[Manna - October 29]
We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed; always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus. 2 Corinthians 4:8-10
THOSE who joyfully endure for the Lord's sake,
the Truth's sake, the greatest shame, the greatest
ignominy, the greatest trials, the greatest persecutions
in this present life, and thus have experiences most
like those of the Master and Pattern, we may be sure
will in proportion to their faithfulness manifested in
such sacrifices, have a future great reward;—as the
apostle has declared, "star differeth from star in
glory." Z. '01-55 R2762:4
