Potholder Perspectives: Persuaded

“For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate me from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus my Lord.” Romans 8:38-39
The same day that I made this Valentine themed potholder, I came across an old list I wrote in college titled, “How I know God Loves Me.” Here’s an excerpt:

1.       He sent Jesus (to start with the obvious…)
2.       He created horses.
3.       He gave me such a great family that I get homesick.
4.       He made chocolate.
5.       He smiles when I baby-talk my pets.
6.       He wrote harmonies for me to sing.
7.       He listens, even when I don’t.
8.       He inspired Jane Austen to write novels.
All I can say is I am persuaded I love Him too.
