NOTHING CAN DO IT!








NOTHING CAN DO IT!


I wrote recently

That Romans chapter 8=

Is one of MY most

Favorite writings=in the bible=

And it is


Partly because of what

It says in

Romans 8:38-39=

In answer to this question=


“What will SEPARATE US

From the

LOVE of Christ?” Romans 8:35


Paul's answer seems UNIMAGINABLE=

He presents a number of

POSSIBILITIES=and then dwells on each


“For I am convinced

That neither death-nor life

Neither angels-nor demons


Neither the present-

Not 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” Romans 8:38-39


Got that=not anything

NOTHING CAN DO IT!


NOTHING can separate us

From God's love


Not the Corona virus=

Not social unrest=

NOT earthquakes or hurricanes

NOTHING!


I find SOLACE in Paul's answer=

I cannot wrap myself

Around the VASTNESS of

God's or Christ's love


NOTHING CAN SEPARATE US

From the love of God


“For forty years

You sustained them

In the wilderness=

THEY LACKED NOTHING” Nehemiah 9:21


“Ah-Sovereign Lord

You have made the heavens

And the earth


By your great power

And outstretched arm

NOTHING IS=too hard for you” Jeremiah 32:17


EVEN those that don't

Believe in God=that think

We are FOOLS

For being Christians


God still loves them!

NOTHING=separates us from our God


NOT according to Saint Paul=

Nothing can break

The BOND of salvation

In Christ's love


“I am the vine

You are the branches


If you remain in me

And I in you

You will bear

Much fruit


Apart from me

You can DO NOTHING” John 15:5


Jesus asks us to

LOVE everyone unconditionally


Some may REJECT US=

But we must love then=

We must REMAIN COMPASSIONATE


We are part of

The BODY of Christ=

We must love each other

Just like Jesus


NOTHING CAN DO IT!

Nothing can SEPARATE US

From Christ's love


In the name of Jesus=and our FOREVER LOVING FATHER
