"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." - Romans 8:28 (NIV)
As Robert J. Morgan puts it, the primary requirement and condition necessary for claiming the optimism of Romans 8:28 is loving God.
But I've also come to realise that the real question is not whether we love God. The real question is whether we love God more than anyone/anything else in the world.
Do you love God more than anyone/anything else in the world? Is He your greatest treasure?
"The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field." - Matthew 13:44 (NIV)
