God has a purpose for me

With God, all things are possible

I can do all this through Him who gives me strength.

No condemnation

Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus

Temporary suffering, Eternal glory
Romans 8:18
I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us

Nothing can separate me from God’s love
Romans 8:38-39
For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

I am eternally secure
