Nothing can

Romans 8:38-39 “For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers , neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Could there be anything more magnificent? Have a great weekend.

A rhetorical question

Romans 8:31 “What, then, shall we say in response to these things?  If God is for us, who can be against us? As imperfect human beings we have the impossibe task of understanding our perfect God.  Yet, here is a question posed by our perfect God—-since I love you and take care of you, who or what could possibly destroy My perfect relationship with you?  The answer is so obvious it is unnecessary—-nothing and noone.  The strength provided by our God to each of us is beyond measure.  Enjoy living with that beautiful relationship.

God walks with you

Romans 8:28 “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.” God has never nor will He ever fail you.  Sometimes that statement just doesn’t seem right.  Our human nature many times does not see or understand the will of our God.  In times of our own weakness we have to let our faith filled Spirit rule and always realize God is always watching out for us and knows best.  We always must live realizing we live to fulfill God’s purpose—not our own purpose.

Within every faith filled Christian

Romans 8:10 “But if Christ is in you, then even though your body is subject to death because of sin, the Spirit gives life because of righteousness.” Unfortunately all of us will die.  There is nothing worse on this earth than to die.  That is the ultimate punishment all of us will suffer.  BUT, while we die we live.  We immediately go from the worst to the best.  To say our Savior is totally responsible for an eternity of wonder for each of us is an understatement.  We will never be able to thank Him enough.

The mind brings death or life

Romans 8:6 “The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace.” Holy Spirit govern our mind.  That is a prayer we should pray every morning.  Will that prayer limit our joy of living on this earth?  Is the rest of the world having more of an enjoyable life?  Are we dull missing what life is all about?  Living with the Holy Spirit in our lives brings far more joy, contentedness and peace that any earthly pleasure could possibly bring.  Ask any of the residents who live in our Recovery houses.  You will receive a truthful answer.
