I saw this quote today in something that I was reading and it really made me think.
"Suffering isn't the worst thing that can happen to us. Disobedience is." Vietnamese Pastor (Voice of the Martyrs)
If you have never heard of "Voice of the Martyrs" I encourage you to visit their website.

We used to get their magazine. What eye opening, thought provoking, and often heart breaking stories they have. All it takes is reading one story of a brother or sister in the Lord and you realize all you take for granted living in America. We have it so good here in so many ways. Most of us don't know the sacrifice that others are making in other parts of the world. Is it a big deal to be able to go to church, to talk of your faith in Jesus Christ, or to even own a Bible. It sure is! We need to be reminded of that from time to time don't we?

We must have read the same thing somewhere because that really stuck out to me too! And I agree 100% we are very blessed. Thank you for writing about it. ~Karen
