I will rejoice today because nothing can separate me from God\u2019s love.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Romans 8:35, we are asked a question: \u201cWho shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The answer is given in Romans 8:38-39: \u201cFor I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Truthfully, nothing can separate us from God\u2019s love because He loves us unconditionally. He loves us whether we are good or bad, whether we win or lose, or whether times are smooth or rough. We don\u2019t have to be pretty, smart, wise, talented, or good. We don\u2019t have to earn God\u2019s love. God knew we would never be good enough to earn His love, so He just gives it to us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since God is love, His love is limitless (1 John 4:8). It\u2019s wide and deep, long and high (Ephesians 4:17). It is so great that God sent His Son Jesus Christ to die for us while we were yet sinners (Romans 5:8). In fact, God loves us so much He calls us His children (1 John 3:1).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So whether we believe it or not, God loves us. It\u2019s a given. All we need to do is accept and embrace it because nothing can separate us from God\u2019s love!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
