1 Peter 2 Key

1 Peter 2

Key v20

For what glory [is it], if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer [for it], ye take it patiently, this [is] acceptable with God.

When we suffer for doing well and for our conscience in front of God, we should endure grief. We should take it patiently.

Application

When I have to suffer for doing well, I'll remember to take it patiently and not be angry.

From: Near to the Heart of God

By Cle­land Mc­A­fee, 1903
There is a place of full release,
Near to the heart of God.
A place where all is joy and peace,
Near to the heart of God.

O Jesus, blest Redeemer,
Sent from the heart of God,
Hold us who wait before Thee
Near to the heart of God.
