But even if you should suffer because of righteousness, blessed are you. Do not be afraid or terrified with fear of them. (1 Peter 3:14 NABRE)
...For it is better to suffer for doing good, if that be the will of God, than for doing evil. (1 Peter 3:17 NABRE)
Today, I will draw courage from Peter's words should threats of harm approach me, and I will seek to respond to attacks with gentleness and reverence.
Saint Joseph Calazanz, who reminds us “The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away; blessed be the name of the Lord!” (Job 1:21b NABRE), pray for us.
