Anybody can accept a reward graciously, and many people can even take their punishment patiently when they have done something wrong. But how many people are equipped to handle mistreatment after they have done right? Only Christians are equipped to do that.
When we think a wrong has been done to us that we don't deserve, we can respond. "Lord, You're with me right now. You are here, and you have your reasons for what is happening. You will not take advantage of me. You're much too kind to be cruel.
You're much too good to be unjust. You care for me too much to let his get out of hand. Take charge. Use many integrity to defend me. Give me the grace to stay calm. Control my emotions. Be Lord over my present situation. In such a prayer, we "we sanctify Christ as our Lord in our hearts.
