Do we become isolated and alone. cut off from our relatives and friends because of our faith in Jesus? Does our faith in Jesus lead us a step further - into hearing insults, abuse and all kinds of falsehood spoken against us? If so, today’s Word of God to rejoice and be glad - we have a great reward waiting for us! Praise God!
