What does it mean to bear the lot of following Christ?

Answered in 1 source

Bearing the lot of following Christ means enduring the trials and challenges that come with living a life dedicated to Him.

To bear the lot of following Christ involves accepting the unique difficulties and tribulations that God permits in a believer's life. This hardship often includes persecution, ridicule, and even death for the sake of the Gospel. Jesus exemplified this through His own suffering, and He calls His followers to willingly embrace their circumstances as part of their journey with Him. By loving what Christ loves and bearing the burdens of faith, believers demonstrate their commitment to His sovereign rule and purpose. Their hope and joy lie in the promise that where Christ is, there His servants will also be, affirming the eternal significance of their allegiance to Him.
