Can anything ever separate us from Christ’s love? Does the Lord love us less when we have trouble or go through tough times? Does He love us less when we have no food or a place to stay? What about when danger is all around us and even our very lives are threatened by disease; does He love us less? Can anyone or anything drive a wedge between us and Christ’s love for us? No! Not trouble, not hard times, not hatred, not hunger, not homelessness, not bullying threats, not backstabbing, not even the worst sins can separate us from the love of Christ! Jesus loves us and because He does we cannot be separated from our Master’s embrace. As the scripture says, we will be killed every day because they hated Him.
Lord, allow your love to reach us and heal us. Don’t let us doubt Your love for us because of our situation or circumstances. Cast out the fear of abandonment. We believe in You and Your Word in Romans 8: 35 – 39, that none of these things can ever separate us from You. Thanks for being with us during tough times and thanks for letting us know that we can never be separated from You!
