John 7:7 The world cannot hate you, but it hates me because I testify that what it does is evil.
Because the world hated Jesus, we who follow him can expect that many people will hate us as well. If circumstances are going to well, ask if you are following Christ as you should. We can be grateful when life goes well, but we must make sure it is not at the coast of following Jesus halfheartedly or not at all.
Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; (6) in all your ways acknowledge him and he will make your paths straight.
