My bible study this week took me to Romans 8 and made me feel good about where I am with my spirituality.
For those who question, "If God loves us and has saved us, why is there pain?" One answer can be found in Romans 8: 17 (And since we are his children, we will share his treasures...But if we are to share his glory, we must also share his suffering).
For those who have questions about prayer, Romans 8:26-27 provides some answers (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 in words. And the Father who know all hears knows, of course, what the Spirit is saying).
There are answers to how we are saved in Romans 8:1-4, information about death in Romans 8:10, information about trust Romans 8:24-25, and much more.
My favorite verses are this: For I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from his love. Death can't, and life can't. The angels won't, and all the powers of hell itself cannot keep God's love away. Our fears for today, or wrries about tomorrow, or where we are - high above the sky, or in the deepest ocean - nothing will ever be able to separate us from the love of God demonstrated by our Lord Jesus Christ when he died for us. (Romans 8: 38-29)
