Who then can ever keep Christ’s love from us?

When we have trouble or clamity, when

we are hunted down or destroyed,

is it because He doesn’t love us anymore?

And if we are hungry, or penniless, or in danger,

or threatened with death, has God deserted us?

No, for the Scriptures tell us that for His sake

we must be ready to face death at every moment

of the day~we are like sheep awaiting slaughter;

but despite all this, OVERWHELMING victory is ours

through Christ who loved us enough to die for us!

(Romans 8:35-37, TLB)
