This Is Not My Home



I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us...


...We wait eagerly for...the redemption of our bodies. 


For in this hope we are saved. But hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what he already has? But if we hope for what we do not yet have, we wait for it patiently....


...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...


...What then shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?! He who did not spare His own Son, but gave Him up for us all - how will He not also...graciously give us all things? ...Christ Jesus who died - more than that, who was raised to life - is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us.


Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword...?


...NO! In all things we are more than conquerors, through Him who loved us. 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 creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

  1. I love that feature in your character that inspires you write the Words and add nothing. They stand alone. Perfect.
