Read about It
Read: Romans 8:31–39
If you were working on an art project, you might take two different paint colors and combine them to make one new color. Or perhaps you might take two different colors of play dough and mash them together until they combine and make one color. When these things are combined, it would be impossible to ever separate them again into what they once were.
This is much like how God is with us. In this life, Christians will face times that are difficult, and we may feel lonely. However, God’s Word promises that, when we go through those times, we can be confident in the love that God has for us. Nothing, except our own desire, can ever separate us from His love. No matter what we face, we can remember that God is for us, and we can trust Him with every part of our life.
