What then shall we say to this? If God is for us, who is against us?
Today’s verse pretty much sums up the verses we have seen over the last two days. Both taking vengeance and trying to selfishly defend our turf make zero sense if God is for us. It’s like trying to kick open an open door or developing a fear that gravity will stop working. God is on our side just as gravity is under our feet. That won’t change and that means that we are at peace. Today, thank God that he is for you—-for all of us.
