        Psalm 104:24-32 (ESV)

        24 Lord, how manifold are your works!
            In wisdom have you made them all;
            the earth is full of your creatures.
        25 Here is the sea, great and wide,
            which teems with creatures innumerable,
            living things both small and great.
        26 There go the ships,
            and Leviathan, which you formed to play in it.

        27 These all look to you,
            to give them their food in due season.
        28 When you give it to them, they gather it up;
            when you open your hand, they are filled with good things.
        29 When you hide your face, they are dismayed;
            when you take away their breath, they die
            and return to their dust.
        30 When you send forth your Spirit, they are created,
            and you renew the face of the ground.

        31 May the glory of the Lord endure forever;
        may the Lord rejoice in his works,
        32 who looks on the earth and it trembles,
        who touches the mountains and they smoke!

        Romans 8:31-39 (ESV)

        God's Everlasting Love

        31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? 32 He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things? 33 Who shall bring any charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies. 34 Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us. 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? 36 As it is written,

        “For your sake we are being killed all the day long;
            we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.”

        37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38 For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
