Can anything ever separate us from Christ's love? Does it mean he no longer loves us if we have trouble or calamity, or are persecuted, or are hungry or cold or in danger or threatened with death? (Even the Scriptures say, 'For your sake we are killed every day, we are being slaughtered like sheep.') No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us. And I am convinced that nothing can every separate us from his love. Death can't, and life can't. The angels can't, and the demons can't. Our fears for today, our worries about tomorrow, and even the powers of hell can't keep God's love away. Whether we are high above the sky or in the deepest ocean, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:35-39 NLT We are God's People, we are not babes in the woods and, no matter how it looks now, we are going to inherit this earth and rule it. The devil may be prince of this world, but the earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof, and He will set up His kingdom and His people will be in charge of it.
May the Lord bless you and keep you

No I am not concerned.
.
. Saying I am sorry is WORTHLESS without real repentance.
True or FALSE ?
Without a personal and intimate relationship with God, how can you ever realize the true identity and person of God?
Continue to be faithful, deliverance is near, obedience must be seen, be an unconditional blessing as He continues to bless you.
This time is short, serve Him well, serving all.
Without exception.
Fleeing ?
Know ?
Yes ?

For me to live is Christ and to die is gain.

I would never give up on Jesus Bill, I mean He's my life. Like the disciples said when many had deserted Jesus, and He asked them if they would leave too, and they said "Where should we go? You have the words of eternal life."
But I must confess I find it tough going sometimes in the area I live in to keep a positive attitude. It's a relatively poor area and there are a lot of people in difficult situations, consequently generally folk living around me tend to be very negative. Even the Christians here aren't that joyful!!! Sometimes I want to just give them all a good shake and say "For goodness sake, LAUGH at something for a change!!!"
The joy of the Lord is supposed to be our strength isn't it?!!!
Blessings Bill.
