Spurgeon’s Daily Help
Don’t think you’re suffering for Christ if you’re not in Christ. Are you trusting only in Jesus? If not, whatever hardships you face, you’re not suffering with Christ and have no hope of reigning with Him in Heaven. Also, not all of a Christian’s sufferings are with Christ; it’s essential that you’re
called by God to suffer. If you’re reckless and put yourself in situations that neither God’s guidance nor grace has prepared you for, you might be sinning rather than sharing in Jesus’ suffering.

If you put a golden saddle and silken bridle on a horse, it doesn’t make it any better for the journey; in fact, if you load it down with silver, it will travel even worse. In the same way, rank doesn’t make someone a better Christian, and wealth doesn’t
help holiness. So why do people seek honor and fortune as if they’re the most important things? If they were wise, they’d earnestly desire the best spiritual gifts.
