Be happy if you are insulted for being a Christian, for then the glorious Spirit of God will come upon you…it is no shame to suffer for being a Christian. Praise God for the privilege of being called by his wonderful name!…So if you are suffering according to God’s will, keep on doing what is right, and trust yourself to the God who made you, for he will never fail you” (1 Peter 4:14,16,19).
