       Words of Encouragement.
       
       Rom 8:18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time
       are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to
       us.
       
       Rom 8:31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for
       us, who can be [fn] against us?
       Rom 8:32 He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us
       all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all
       things?
       Rom 8:33 Who shall bring any charge against God's elect? It is
       God who justifies.
       Rom 8:34 Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who
       died--more than that, who was raised--who is at the right hand
       of God, who indeed is interceding for us. [fn]
       Rom 8:35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall
       tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or
       nakedness, or danger, or sword?
       Rom 8:36 As it is written, "For your sake we are being killed
       all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered."
       Rom 8:37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors
       through him who loved us.
       Rom 8:38 For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels
       nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers,
       Rom 8:39 nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all
       creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in
       Christ Jesus our Lord.
       
       ESV Footnotes:
       (8:31) Or who is
       (8:34) Or Is it Christ Jesus who died . . . For us?
       
       1Cr 2:9 But as it is written: "Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,
       Nor have entered into the heart of man The things which God has
       prepared for those who love Him."
       1Cr 2:10 But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For
       the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.
       1Cr 2:11 For what man knows the things of a man except the
       spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the
       things of God except the Spirit of God.
       1Cr 2:12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but
       the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that
       have been freely given to us by God.
       1Cr 2:13 These things we also speak, not in words which man's
       wisdom teaches but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing
       spiritual things with spiritual.
       1Cr 2:14 But the natural man does not receive the things of the
       Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know
       them, because they are spiritually discerned.
       1Cr 2:15 But he who is spiritual judges all things, yet he
       himself is rightly judged by no one.
       1Cr 2:16 For "who has known the mind of the LORD that he may
       instruct Him?" But we have the mind of Christ.
       
       Eph 3:20 Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly
       above all that we ask or think, according to the power that
       works in us,
       Eph 3:21 to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all
       generations, forever and ever. Amen.
       1Cr 10:13 No temptation [fn] has overtaken you except what is
       common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be
       tempted [fn] beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted,
       [fn] he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.
       NIV Footnotes:
       (10:13) The Greek for temptation and tempted can also mean
       testing and tested.
       May the Lord continue to bless you, and keep you safe.
       Edwin.
