Entrust your soul to a faithful Creator.

 1 Peter 4:19 says, “Therefore let those who suffer according to God’s will entrust their souls to a faithful Creator while doing good.” 

1 Peter 4 talks a little bit about serving and doing good even if we get mocked or suffer for it. And that verse 19 says that when we are doing good and suffering for it, we need to entrust our souls to a FAITHFUL creator. 

Entrust means to assign someone the responsibility of something. We are to assign the responsibility of our soul to our faithful creator, and he who promised is Faithful. And he, our faithful creator, has promised to give us strength. 1 Peter 4:11 says, “…whoever serves, as one who serves by the strength that God supplies,” We get given the strength we need to serve and do good, even tho we suffer for it. 

So the next time you’re tempted to complain about the suffering, or give up doing good, stop and remember to  assign the responsibility of your soul to your Faithful Creator.
