"Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword?...No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord."
I read this in the morning during my quiet time. I really feel that this passage can help us rest in the love of our Father. To know there is nothing that can take his love away shows his surpassing care for us. O how deep the fathers love for us. At times I feel words cannot express how deep his love truly is for us. Nothing can compare to the ultimate sacrifice shown in the work of Christ. May we give the due honor and glory to the one who paid the price for our sin. Father God I thank you for the love you have shown us and to know nothing can separate us from your love.
