Day 15: Romans 8



This post is part of a 31-day series.



And we know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.

-Romans 8:28





Romans 8:28 is justifiably one of the most beloved of all biblical promises.  ALL things.  God causes ALL things to work together for good to those who are called of God.  Not just the circumstances we're depressed about, but even unstoppable depression/anxiety itself.


Who will separate us from the love of Christ?  Will tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword [or anxiety or helplessness to control our emotions]?...I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth [nor neurosis, nor sin, nor depression], nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

-Romans 8:35, 38-39


Next:  The Valley
