Are they Hebrews? So am I. Are they Israelites? So am I. Are they offspring of Abraham? So am I. Are they servants of Christ? I am a better one–I am talking like a madman–with far greater labors, far more imprisonments, with countless beatings, and often near death.
Lord, all the indignities that Paul suffered for Your sake, and I grumble about some minor problem such as lack of gratitude on the part of someone I have served? Ridiculous! When will I learn to rejoice that I could suffer for Your Name?
