God’s love is still there …!

Who will separate us from the love of Christ? Will hardship, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?” 

Then Paul answers his own question with resounding words of encouragement: 

“No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor rulers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Paul went on to write, “For I am convinced that neither death, nor life” — If we die, we are with God, if we live, God is with us in our hearts, in this life too.  

God’s love is still there …! 


Wonderful story for Corrie:

~ … Paul’s amazing words of encouragement reminded me of an interview I read with Corrie Ten Boom. Some of you may know that Corrie became an internationally renowned author through her autobiography of her life during Nazi occupation. Corrie was raised in a Christia

n home in Holland. When the Nazis came in and began to persecute the Jews, her family built “a hiding place” into their house, to hide a Jewish family. In time, Corrie’s family was found out and sent off to die with the family they had protected. Corrie was the sole survivor out of the two families. 
The interviewer asked Corrie something like, “What was the greatest miracle you experienced i

n the extermination camps?”  

She responded, “The presence of Jesus Christ.” 

The interviewer was a little taken aback and sought to clarify, “But didn’t yo

u write about miracles and deliverances in the camps?”  

“Yes,” Corrie replied, “But the greatest miracle was Christ’s presence.”~
