Sometimes we just need a reminder of truth. Sometimes we need a little, or a lot, of comfort.
I decided that I need to re-read Romans. I tend to get into devotional books and other things and not just sit down to read the Bible. I've even fallen a bit into what the whole busy, distracted, electronic-connected culture has (even me-always a reader) into not believing that I have the attention span to just sit down and read the Word. Not true!
This is comforting to me right now:
Romans 8:35-39
"Who will separate us from the love of Christ? Will tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril or sword?
But in all these things we overwhelmingly conquer through Him who loved us.
For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
Back to verse 31: "What then can we say to these things? If God is for us, who is against us?"
