“What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?” (Romans 8:31).
What a difficult time Shelly was going through. If something could go wrong, it seemed to for her. She had a difficult childhood. Throughout her teen years she never seemed to fit in with “the popular crowd.” At work she seemed to always answer the phone with the most unpleasant customers. Her dad often berated her for not turning out like her doctor sister. Sometimes Shelly felt like everything and everybody were against her. In a particularly hard time, she picked her Bible up, and in her regular reading she came to Romans 8 and read the full chapter. Suddenly she came to the verse in our Daily Prescriptions. She stopped and read it again. What an impact on her life! We’ll think a little more about this tomorrow. For now, think of the joyous blessing of having God be for us!
For today: No matter what comes along throughout your day, if you know Christ as your Savior, your God is for you!
