NEVER BEEN and WILL NEVER BE!
Posted by: biojessic in article, tags: Christ, hope, Jesus, love, UnlovedI am writing this now as I think about the many unpredictable things that are happening around me. I have problems, unfinisheds tasks and unanswered questions. Deep inside of me, I am not losing hope because of only one reason: I have never been and will never be unloved. How do I know? Because His Word tells me so.
Romans 8:38-39 For 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 created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
What an assurance that we have from a God who is perfect! Despite our sins and weaknesses, our Savior tells us that they’re not enough to take us away from His loving arms. Whatever failures, sin, pain, disagreement or disappointment, remember that we are not alone. The God who loves us will never leave us. Whatever disease, challenge, exam, news or event may come our way, remember that God is in control. The God who loves us will never lose us in His hands.
Our world is full of things that will deceive us into believing that He already abandoned us. But do not be swayed for He who formed you won’t be separated from you. Let us rest in this fact that whatever happens, our Lord did, does and will love us.
