Trust = More Than Conquerors

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 these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. Romans 8:35,37 Our interpretation of difficulties determines our response to them. If we believe that we deserve that God give us a smooth, relatively pain-free life, always on the upward path of greater success, we’ll be devastated and shocked when we experience trouble. Unrealistic expectations inevitably lead to resentment, and soon, our hearts grow cold toward God. Following Christ in this world sometimes includes genuine suffering. So don’t be surprised when you encounter problems, and don’t forget God’s presence and love either. Nothing can separate us from the personal attention and deep love of Christ. During tough times, Christ’s compassion only intensifies. Difficulties don’t mean that God doesn’t care. Trust in His wisdom to guide you, His presence to comfort you, and His strength to support you. If you do, then instead of barely making it, you will become “more than conquerors”.
