Romans 5 verse 5: “This hope does not disappoint. because God’s love has been poured out in our hearts through The Holy Spirit Who He has given us”.
This famous quote is said a lot, “The greatest happiness of life is the conviction we are loved”.
When we know we are loved we are content and satisfied. no matter what. The Apostles Paul knew this and wrote about it. And he wrote about it from the context of struggles and sufferings. Two ways that we should know that we are loved by God.
First from the scripture above, God has poured out His love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, Whom He has given us.
Second that is God Demonstrates his own love for us: Romans 5 verse 8:
“But God proves His own love for us in that while we were still sinners Christ died for us.”
The two means of knowing God’s love are through the Holy Spirit and through the cross.
Wade deep into into both deeper into The Holy Spirit and deeper into the treasures of the cross.
They were both given so we know we are loved, and by knowing we can have happiness in all kinds of circumstances.
He didn’t promise no difficulties or tough times, but Our Lord and Our Friend promised a Love that would be with us and help us get through anything
The Just shall live by Faith, Faith in an ever present and eternal love. which God freely gives to any ‘whosoever’ John 3 verse 16.
God Bless
