How do we know that suffering for doing good is commendable in God's sight?

Answered in 1 source

Suffering for doing good is commendable to God because it aligns with Christ's example of enduring unjust suffering (1 Peter 2:19-21).

The Scriptures teach that enduring suffering for doing what is right is commendable in God's sight, as highlighted in 1 Peter 2:19-21. This aligns closely with the example set by Christ, who suffered for our sins, leaving us an example to follow. When believers face unjust suffering, they are participating in Christ’s sufferings and exhibiting a faith that trusts in God's justice. This kind of suffering is not meaningless; God sees it, and it serves a greater purpose in a believer’s life, refining their faith and character.
