"NOTHING"


Who could separate us from the love of Christ?
We are saved by Faith, and faith means looking forward
to getting something we don’t yet have, for a man who already
has something, doesn’t need to hope and trust that he will get it.
But if we must keep trusting God for something that hasn’t
happened yet, it teaches us to wait patiently and confidently.
And in the same way by our faith, the Holy Spirit helps us with
our daily problems, and in our praying. For we don’t even know
what we should pray for; nor how to pray as we should, but the
Holy Spirit prays for us with such feeling that it cannot be
expressed with words.
And the Father who knows all hearts knows, of course, what the
Spirit is saying as He pleads for us in harmony with God’s will.
And we know that all that happens to us is working for our own
good if we love God and are called according to His plans.
For from the very beginning, God decided that those who came
to Him and all along He knew who would should become like
His Son, so that His Son, would be the first, with many brothers.
And having chosen us, He called us to come to Him; and when
we came, He declared us not guilty, filled us with Christ’s
goodness, gave us right standing with Himself and promised us
His glory.
What can we say to such wonderful things as these?
If God is on our side, who can be against us?
Since He did not spare even His own Son, for us, but gave Him
up for us all, won’t He also surely give us everything else?
Who dares accuse us, whom God has chosen for His own?
Will God? No! He is the one who has forgiven us, and given us
right standing with Himself.
Who then will condemn us? Will Christ?
