Quotes by Mary J. Nelson (?)

“He were to take back His Spirit and withdraw His breath, all humanity would turn to dust (Job 34:14)! He doesn’t, because of the extravagant and passionate love He has for His creation; and nothing, not all powers of heaven or hell, can ever separate the love of the Father from the children He created (Romans 8:38–39).”
― Mary J. Nelson, Hope for Tough Times
