Don't you guys love Jesus!!

I read some great stuff in Luke 21 yesterday and i wanted to share it with you. Jesus is talking about the coming of the end of the age and what not and how we (christians) will be persecuted and taken before governors and kings and put into prisons and such. Pick it up at verse 13 " This wil result in your being witnesses to them. 14 But make up your mind not to worry beforehand how you will defend yourselves. 15 For I will give you words and wisdom that none of your adversaries will be able to resist or contradict.16 You will be betrayed even by parents, brothers, relatives and friends, and they will put some of you to death. 17 All men will hate you because of me. 18 But not a hair of your head will perish. 19 By standing firm you will gain life. I like how it says that we won't have to defend ourselves. What an awesome promise. I thought that was encouraging because all we have to do is Love Jesus! Not always easy but it's worth it i suppose.
