When Trouble Comes, Love Stays
“Who will separate us from the love of Christ? Will tribulation, or trouble, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? Just as it is written: ‘For Your sake we are killed all day long; We were regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.’” — Romans 8:35–36 (NASB 1995)
Life’s storms can shake our confidence—but they don’t shake God’s love. Persecution, suffering, even the threat of death cannot break the bond between Christ and His people. The Spirit reassures your heart: nothing separates you from the love of Christ.
The Ante-Nicene believers lived this truth. Many faced intense persecution. But they endured because they were empowered by the Spirit and anchored in Christ’s unshakable love.
Reflection:
What hardship makes you question God’s nearness? Let His Word answer.
Prayer:
Holy Spirit, settle my heart in Christ’s love. Let no fear, no pain, no pressure make me forget that nothing can separate me from Him. Amen.

I’m a follower of Christ, learning daily to walk the narrow path laid out in His Word. Through Rooted & Raised: Anchoring Women & Children in Christ, I simply seek to point others back to Scripture, tested by the Holy Spirit, lived out in faith, and anchored in truth.
● This space isn’t about lofty theology or grand platforms. It’s about humble obedience, Kingdom living, and helping others, especially women and families, rediscover the kind of faith that bears fruit, costs something, and reflects the love of Christ. My heart is to encourage others as I learn, grow, and surrender alongside them.
