30 Second Reflection - Nothing can separate us

Today's Bible except barely needs an introduction. It is one of my absolute favourites because of the sense of deep security and optimism within it. This is one I return to when I need to be reminded again that anything is possible. And we are never alone.

'What then are we to say about these things? If God is for us, who is against us? He who did not withhold his son but have him up for all of us, will he not with him also give us everything else?....No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, not angels, nor rulers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor heights, nor depths, nor anything else in the whole world will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.'

from Romans 8:31-37

All the 30 Second Reflections this week are some excepts from the Bible which might surprise you and might be ones you have never heard before all applied to modern life. This ties in with the Faith for the Fainthearted series which this week explores the theme of the Bible.
