"And we believers also groan, even though we have the Holy Spirit within us as a foretaste of future glory, for we long for our bodies to be released from sin and suffering." Romans 8:23
In his blog today, Bryan called for a time of prayer for Uncle Charlie. Uncle Charlie recently went through an amputation for a gangrenous leg, due to his diabetic condition. I opened the Bible after praying for him, and the verse above came up.
"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? (As 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." Romans 8:35-37
