As it is written: “For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered. No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Oftentimes we encounter situations that make us question God’s love for us, maybe Ill health, an unanswered prayer, the loss of a loved one, a persistent source of pain. we pray to no avail, it seems as though the heavens were closed. Life comes with challenges, but these challenges do not diminish God’s love for us. The one who loved us enough to allow his son pass through pain, loves us still even if our challenges persist. Nothing can separate you from God’s love Think about a playing child, who gets injured right in front of the mother, does that mean she loves him less? Think about a father driving the car with his children in it, and they get into an accident, one child dead and another injured. Does he love them less? Nothing can separate us from God’s love. Not even a long list of our sins, once we come to Jesus, we get blank sheets. The prodigal son sojourned and mingled with all sorts of things and people, he received a party on His return. Come to Jesus today , and embrace his love Prayer Dear Lord, I step into the atmosphere of your Love today, take me as I am, and wrap me in your arms, make me feel secure in your love, and be assured, that nothing can come between us. In Jesus name I pray.
