When we truly give our hearts to God, and serve Him with no reservations, we will never be useless. Even in our darkest hour, God will still use us to shine His truth into the lives of others. We must never give up hope or think God doesn’t care, because He will always use a willing spirit to rescue lost souls. And those souls we help rescue, will be a great reward in Heaven. What you do matters, especially when it involves persecution. Get and stay close to God, it’s the only true and real way to live.
12 “But before all this occurs, there will be a time of great persecution. You will be dragged into synagogues and prisons, and you will stand trial before kings and governors because you are My followers.13 But this will be your opportunity to tell them about Me.14 So don’t worry in advance about how to answer the charges against you,15 for I will give you the right words and such wisdom that none of your opponents will be able to reply or refute you!16 Even those closest to you–your parents, brothers, relatives, and friends–will betray you. They will even kill some of you.17 And everyone will hate you because you are My followers.18 But not a hair of your head will perish!19 By standing firm, you will win your souls.
Luke 21:12-19
