Luk 22:28 “You are those who have stayed with me in my tough times,
Luk 22:29 and I am assigning to you, as my Father assigned to me, a kingdom,
Luk 22:30 so that you will be able to eat and drink at my table in my kingdom and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

staying with him in tough times

For some time now, I have been studying what the Bible says about tough times. I have been having a number of negative experiences, and I want to know how I should react. I get from today’s text that tough times will be the rule for the Christian, not the exception. I also get that in some way, our status through eternity will be measured by our willingness to stay faithful to Christ during these tough times.

LORD, help us to honor you by being faithful during our tough times.
