“And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor like, neither angels nor devils, neither our fears for today, nor our worries about tomorrow, not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. No power in the sky above, nor in the earth below. Indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus, our Lord.” - Romans 8:26-28
