Nothing Can Separate Us from His Love

And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God's love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God's love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:38-39 NLT



I am convinced that nothing can separate us from God—and that it is the Holy Spirit who has revealed Christ Jesus to us. Whether we live or die we will still have God with us—in us and around us. Like Paul…it doesn’t matter—if we live or die—it is for the Lord.

For not one of us lives for himself, and not one dies for himself; for if we live, we live for the Lord, or if we die, we die for the Lord; therefore whether we live or die, we are the Lord's. Romans 14:7-8

But if I am to live on in the flesh, this will mean fruitful labor for me; and I do not know which to choose. But I am hard-pressed from both directions, having the desire to depart and be with Christ, for that is very much better; yet to remain on in the flesh is more necessary for your sake. Convinced of this, I know that I will remain and continue with you all for your progress and joy in the faith….Philippians 1:22-25.



Again like Paul, I run the race with the goal of Christ in mind and am focused on Him.

Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may win. 1 Corinthians 9:24.



No worries. Jesus didn’t want us to worry. In His Sermon on the Mount, He said…So do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will care for itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. Matthew 6:34. No worries—nothing can separate us from His love. Be thankful for that.



Prayer ~ Holy Spirit—I am thankful for You—for the love that God the Father, Son and You, Holy Spirit, have shown to me, even though I don’t deserve it. I am overwhelmed with Your love, peace and joy that I receive in faith. Praise be to God that nothing on earth or above the earth—or even in my heart, soul, and mind can separate me from You. I live for the Lord with thanksgiving and praise from my very being. No worries.
