Counted worthy to suffer

Acts 5: 41 - 42

41And they departed from the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer shame for his name.
42And daily in the temple, and in every house, they ceased not to teach and preach Jesus Christ.

Galatians 6: 9

9And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

1 Peter 2: 19 - 23

19For this is thankworthy, if a man for conscience toward God endure grief, suffering wrongfully.
20For what glory is it, if, when ye be buffeted for your faults, ye shall take it patiently? but if, when ye do well, and suffer for it, ye take it patiently, this is acceptable with God.
21For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:
22Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:
23Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously:

Philippians 1: 29

29For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;

1 Peter 4: 16

16Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on this behalf.

Psalms 55: 22

22Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved.
