Morning — July 31 — 2 Timothy 2:3

Join me in suffering, like a good soldier of Christ Jesus. — 2 Timothy 2:3Suffering is not a detour in the Christian life but the appointed battlefield where Christ trains His soldiers. The Captain of our salvation was perfected through suffering, so we should expect the same path. Every hardship is a weapon for divine warfare, and the God of all grace uses it to secure and strengthen you until He restores everything.
