Nothing is more powerful than God

Today's section of Saint Paul's Letter to the Romans is one of my favorites. I've often used today's first reading at funerals. I find the words of Saint Paul to be a great comfort in a world where I could feel small and helpless. God can only be separated from us by our own choices, our sins, but even then is willing to do whatever it takes to bring us back into he care and grace.
