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.”

he who created you, O Jacob, he who
formed you, O Israel: “Fear not, for I
have redeemed you; I have summoned
you by name: YOU ARE MINE.
When you pass through the waters, I
will be with you; and when you pass
through the rivers, they will not sweep
over you. When you walk through the
fire, you will not be burned; the flames
will not set you ablaze. For I am the
LORD, your God, the Holy One of
Israel, your Savior.”
Fear not, for God is with you!
