Who shall separate us indeed?!


It's easy to be a Christian in the good times.  But what about when the hard times hit?  And trust me, no matter how "good" of a Christian you are there will still be hard times. 

Do those hard times separate you from Christ or draw you closer; or make no difference at all?

Romans 8:35(NKJV)
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 

Wait a minute.  Make no difference at all? 

Yep.  I guess what I am getting at is that for a mature Christian it really shouldn't affect your relationship with Jesus either way.  Ecclesiastes tells us that there will be good times and bad.  The New Testament gives us the same message.  It's just part of the cycle of life.  So with that knowledge we need to recognize it and not let it affect our relationship with Jesus.   
 
Does that make sense?
