Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns:
When you endure a difficult time, you need to reset by reminding yourself of where you are, who you are, and what is important to you. Reestablish your relationship to Me, says the Lord, for I will set you on the solid rock of belief and endurance. Your strength in life depends on your spiritual connection. Be strong.
Isaiah 41:10 Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.

But you respond with “They are worthy of judgment.” And I respond with “So are you.” There is only one who was not worthy of judgment and that was My Son, Jesus. He said, “Father forgive them for they know not what they do.” He would not judge even as He was crucified. I want you to follow His example.
1 Peter 2:22-23 “He never sinned, nor ever deceived anyone. He did not retaliate when he was insulted, nor threaten revenge when He suffered. He left His case in the hands of God, who always judges justly.” Robin Robinson Bohlin

In reality, it was more like training and equipping for the days ahead. Nothing that happened to you was by accident. God’s plan for you all along was and continues to be preparation for your destiny. Be happy about it. Be very glad. Your reward awaits. The ancient prophets were persecuted in the same way.
Matthew 5:12 “Be happy about it! Be very glad! For a great reward awaits you in heaven. And remember, the ancient prophets were persecuted in the same way.” Ras Robinson
