    26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.
    Love this. The spirit knows what we need even we don’t. The Lord always knows. In my search to find out more about the spirit, this stands out to me. This is incredibly comforting.

      Kaily, that stuck out to me as well. So often lately I’ve found myself realizing God answered something that was on my heart that I hadn’t prayed for. It had been a fleeting thought in my mind, a moment through this crazed mom brain and yet, I see him answering and providing and it would just make me smile because I knew that it was just my Father loving on me. This passage just made it all be more clear that when our human brains fail, we have something far more powerful working for us and with our Heavenly Father.

    38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
    Alleluia!

    18 “For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.”
    Our life is so short compared to the eternal glory with God we get to have! What a reassurance! We have been given a spirit of endurance AND perseverance. Thank the Lord!!

    12 “But they do not know the thoughts of the Lord,
    And they do not understand His purpose;
    For He has gathered them like sheaves to the threshing floor.

    It is not always our place to ask the reasons why we are called to do certain things in life, but to be confident in the fact that the Lord has fashioned these things for us and we will one day come to find the purpose.

  5. Zoe says:

    It is awesome to read Romans 8 and to have that reassurance that know matter what path he shows us it will never be anything that we can’t handle! So we shouldn’t worry about the next decision or next step in our lives because all we need to do is just focus on Him!

    1. Alison says:

      Hi Zoe! I too am encouraged by Romans 8 because it promises God’s presence with us through it all. I think that there will be many things in our life that we cannot handle-God promises in his word that if we follow him, the world will hate us-but God promises himself to us and promises that His love will endure beyond what we experience in this life. It encourages my heart to know that I am weak and I will fail, and there will be many times that I cannot do his will on my own, but that God already knows that and He is standing there to be my strength when I have none and be my wisdom when I feel lost.

    I love the continued prophesies of peace:. Can you imagine the enormity of nations not needing to train for war anymore?

    Micah 4:3 He will judge between many peoples
    and will settle disputes for strong nations far and wide.
    They will beat their swords into plowshares
    and their spears into pruning hooks.
    Nation will not take up sword against nation,
    nor will they train for war anymore.
    4 Everyone will sit under their own vine
    and under their own fig tree,
    and no one will make them afraid,
    for the Lord Almighty has spoken.
    5 All the nations may walk
    in the name of their gods,
    but we will walk in the name of the Lord
    our God for ever and ever.

    1. Nicole111 says:

      where it says they can have their gods, but we will walk in the name of the Lord forever . it seems like its ok that others worship different gods? that can’t be, can it?

      1. Olivia says:

        I think it just means that people will have their own gods, (not glorifying or endorsing that practice) but saying that we will be the Lord’s.

  7. Katrina says:

    Romans 8:31 What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?

    In my terms, why worry about haters in our Earthly world when the Lord loves us so much and has our back more than anyone else could?

  8. Nicole says:

    I love this whole chapter of Romans! What great nuggets of truth to start the week–
    31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?
