Young Life Gone A young man who died in WWI When his family got his personal belonging, his bible had these verses double underlined: For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life. Nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:38-39
