I love this chapter of Romans. Whenever I read it I always feel uplifted. The whole passage is brilliant, showing us the hope we have in God. However the bit that I love the most is verses 6-8,
You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
I don't really think I can do this passage of scripture justice to be honest. It really does speak for itself. These few verses show the love of God. Jesus died for everyone, he didn't just die for the people that believe in Him, but also for those who don't believe. He died while we were still in sin, while we were far away from Him.
We need to hold on to this passage. We need to believe this passage. We need to remember these verses and know that even when things around us are going wrong, that our hope is build on Jesus. Our hope is in the Lord, as He demonstrated His love for us through the cross. Do we really think that He'd go through all of that just for us to fall at the first hurdle? Let's trust in Him and put our hope in Him. He is all we need.
