SAA Notes
When you face much opposition to your faith, there is someone whose life we should always turn to and consider – Christ’s. (v.2,3) A time of reflection on His life every day will strengthen you emotionally, spiritually and in every other way. This is the fount of living peacefully with others, the fount to a holy life – the good life.
SJA Notes
* Holy God, You word to us is true. Please teach us what to do today and may we walk in it.
“Consider him who endured from sinners such hostility against himself, so that you may not grow weary or fainthearted.”
Consider Him!
Look to Jesus.
Jesus was despised and rejected by men, a man of sorrows and acquainted with the same grief we experience.
Jesus came down and dwelt among us.
This is our God.
When we are discouraged with life, disheartened and feeling low, let us be reminded to,
Consider Jesus.
* Father God,
Thank You for Your discipline, which is painful for a moment, but yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness.
Remind us each day to consider Jesus.
Thank You that Your word tells us this is a help for us, for our endurance, our perseverance.
Amen.
