I have been really trying to read my bible more often. It has been such a blessing and it's amazing how no matter how often you read a passage you can still learn somthing new from it. A few months ago the Holy Spirit moved me to read Romans. I have to tell the truth. It was not my favorite book. I was kind of discouraged because I thought because the Holy Spirit had moved me to read it then I would gain some great wisdom from it!! I then read the book of Acts and it was great. I loved reading about the first church. The Acts church. Acts was such a blessing. It revived my spirits and I was ready for more. Then the Holy Spirit did it again. I was moved to read Romans again. I was not sure why it was so important to read this book again but I am trying to be more obedient. As I was reading last night I was touched by this passage. Romans 8:37-39...... No, in all these things we are more that conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 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.
I know now that this passage was the reason for me reading Romans again. Some of you may know this passage well but it has really touched my heart. It is amazing how awesome God's word is and how he speaks to his children through it. I am so thankful for being one of his children. I am now ready to finish Romans with a thankful and open heart.
