Life is Good

²⁸ And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.

This means that even when life is down in the dumps and life is going to pot it's going to be okay. Because it is all going to workout according to God's perfect plan that may not make any sense to us. We may not see anything besides that everything that we thought we knew is crashing down around our very feet.

²⁹ For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren.

Christ knew everyone of before we were Christians. When we became Christians, God conformed to the image of his son Jesus Christ. Jesus came as the ultimate sacrifice for us but he also came to show us the way to lead other Christians. He was to the role model for all Christians to follow.

³¹ What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?

When we have God on our side no one is big enough to stand against us. Even the most towering thing that stands against, obstacles that we don't think that we can get around are but tiny insignificant things in God's eyes. We spend so much time worrying about things that don't mean a hill of beans that we miss the important things that God is trying to show us in our lives.
