"No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us." Romans 8:37 NIV
This has been one of my favorite verses for a while now (along with verses 38-39). Check out the NASB version:
"But in all these things we OVERWHELMINGLY conquer through Him who loved us." Romans 8:37 NASB
God doesn't just let us barely get through this world. With Him, we "OVERWHELMINGLY conquer" tribulation, distress, persecution, hardship, etc (vs. 35 both versions)
With God, we have no in between. It is either to conquer through Jesus or to die with the world. Life is hard and it will never get easier, but i find peace in the fact that through Jesus Christ, my Savior, I can conquer it all. and no matter how much I mess it up, "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 ALL CREATION, will be able to separate" me "from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord." (verses 38-39)
I wish i could say something right now to express my wonder and awe for my Redeemer, Healer, Savior, and Father, yet Friend but there are no words for it.
