3. Galatians 4:4-5
But when the right time came,
God sent His Son, born of a
woman, subject to the law. 5God
sent him to buy freedom for us
who were slaves to the law, so
that He could adopt us as his
very own children. NLT

5. Colossians 1:24
I am glad when I suffer for you
in my body, for I am completing
what remains of Christ’s
sufferings for his body, the
church. NLT
6. 2 Corinthians 4:8-10
We are pressed on every side
by troubles, but we are not
crushed and broken. We are
perplexed, but we don’t give up
and quit.
7. 9We are hunted down, but God
never abandons us. We get
knocked down, but we get up
again and keep going.
8. 10Through suffering, these
bodies of ours constantly share
in the death of Jesus so that the
life of Jesus may also be seen
in our bodies. NLT
9. Joy is generated by humility.
People lose their joy when they
become self-centered, thinking
they deserve better
circumstances or treatment
than they are getting.
10. That was never a problem for
Paul. Like all of God’s great
servants, he was conscious of
his unworthiness.

12. 2 Corinthians 1:5-7
You can be sure that the more
we suffer for Christ, the more
God will shower us with his
comfort through Christ. 6So
when we are weighed down
with troubles, it is for your
benefit and salvation!
13. For when God comforts us, it is
so that we, in turn, can be an
encouragement to you. Then
you can patiently endure the
same things we suffer. 7We are
confident that as you share in
suffering, you will also share
God’s comfort. NLT
14. 1 Peter 4:12-16
Dear friends, don’t be surprised
at the fiery trials you are going
through, as if something
strange were happening to you.
15. 13Instead, be very glad—
because these trials will make
you partners with Christ in his
sufferings, and afterward you
will have the wonderful joy of
sharing in his glory when it is
displayed to all the world.
16. 14Be happy if you are insulted
for being a Christian, for then
the glorious Spirit of God will
come upon you. 15If you suffer,
however, it must not be for
murder, stealing, making
trouble, or prying into other
people’s affairs.
17. 16But it is no shame to suffer for
being a Christian. Praise God
for the privilege of being called
by his wonderful name! NLT

19. Meditation & Application
If you lose the joy of walking
with God when suffering for Him
it is because you have lost
connection with the source of
joy (Jn 15).
