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 hungry, 

or destitute, 

or in danger, 

or threatened with death?  

No, 

despite all these things, 

overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, 

who loved us.

Romans 8:35, 37
