We live in a troubled world, I am sure you are aware, even more than usual as we are in the grips of the global COVID19 pandemic. Humanity living in a troubled world has been the status quo for millennia. The original recipients of Paul's letter to the Romans certainly were. The Apostle Paul seeks to assure his Roman readers that even when the troubles of life hit them, their life in God is secure and their salvation is assured - despite what anybody can do to them or what troubles they may have to endure. Paul continues to assure them that God will not separate Himself from them during the pains and trials of life.I wonder what you are undergoing currently in your life. Suffering comes to us all in one-way or another. Suffering of varying degrees is common to all people of all time and of all cultures. Whether self-inflicted or inflicted by others, troubles and sufferings unite all of humanity. It is a common denominator. And, of course, there are no easy answers.as part of endeavouring to respond to this, we see that Paul in Romans 8, gives 8 different glimpses from different angles about the Christian living under and within God's grace. Think of it like a fabulous stained glass sphere depicting life for the Christian believer who has Jesus, the Son of God, as their master and Lord.
