"And we know that He causes all things to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to His purpose for them... Can anything ever separate us from Christ's love? Does it mean he no longer loves us if we have trouble or calamity, or are persecuted, or hungry, or destitute, or in danger or threatened with death? No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us... I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God's love." Rom. 8:28-38
What a good reminder in a place where life is confusing, messy, discouraging and lonely. NOTHING can ever separate us from His love, though it sometimes feels God's left us in a place alone, we KNOW this is not the truth. And He causes ALL things to work together for the good of those who love Him, so we can take hope knowing these hard times, these times in general, WILL work out for good and that HE HAS A PURPOSE IN IT ALL.
"And He came that (we) may have life and have it abundantly." John 10:10 ESV
And so, we will seek to live life abundant. To ENJOY this life He has given us, to make the most of every situation, and of this season, as tough as it may be. To HIM be all the glory and honor.
