Section 24

8 Be patient in afflictions, for thou shalt have many; but endure them, for, lo, I am with thee, even unto the end of thy days.

Even though the church was only a few months old, the persecution was intense.

Sometimes we feel that we are not loved or that the world is crumbling around us.  Jesus said, "Peace, be still."  Let the peace of Christ enter our hearts and our homes.  Let us have confidence and faith in his tender love.
