neither the present nor the 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." --Romans8: 38-39
The supreme reason that you can and should trust God through suffering is found at Calvary, for no better argument can be voiced apart from the cross. that He would endure the full of hell so you could escape it should tell you something as you face your own hellish circumstances. The greatest love scene in the world happened when christ hung and bled on the cross. It was God saying, "Look see, this is how much I love you!" What's amazing is that He played out this love scene while we snubbed Him in cool, callous indifference. Who would want to escape that kind of love, or ignore ir deny it? And what Christian could ever dare doubt it? Christ died for you. What love? sometimes after I've snapped at a friend or chipped in my two cents' worth of gossip, I catch my self thinking, Oh, God, these are the things that nailed Jesus to the cross. . . I am so sorry." Human logic tells me that He should turn away from me. But nothing, absolutely can separate us from His constants outpouring of love, grace, mercy, peace and forgiveness.
Often we twist God's arm for the "reason why" before we decide to trust Him with our circumstances. We want the blueprint spread before us. But the bruised and battered apostle Paul who probably had every reason to wonder "why," never said, "I know in whom I have believed." The love of Christ was enough.
