Nothing can separate you from God's Love. He will never stop loving you for any reason. You cannot commit any sin so bad that He will abandon you. It just won't happen. You should never feel alone. You should never feel like no one loves you. God loves you more than any one else can possibly love you. He will never forsake you. He will always be right by your side. He does not make bad things happen to you. He does not put you in bad situations. He is with you through the whole thing. The bad thing happens because of a choice you made, or it is something that is the will of God, it isn't bad, it's part of His plan to make you stronger! Something good will always come out of what seems bad because God is at work in that if you just trust Him fully. Because He will never stop loving you.
Romans 8:38-39 (NIV)
For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Romans 8:31-39 (MSG)
So, what do you think? With God on our side like this, how can we lose? If God didn't hesitate to put everything on the line for us, embracing our condition and exposing himself to the worst by sending his own Son, is there anything else he wouldn't gladly and freely do for us? And who would dare tangle with God by messing with one of God's chosen? Who would dare even to point a finger? The One who died for us—who was raised to life for us!—is in the presence of God at this very moment sticking up for us. Do you think anyone is going to be able to drive a wedge between us and Christ's love for us? There is no way! Not trouble, not hard times, not hatred, not hunger, not homelessness, not bullying threats, not backstabbing, not even the worst sins listed in Scripture:
They kill us in cold blood because they hate you.
We're sitting ducks; they pick us off one by one.
None of this fazes us because Jesus loves us. I'm absolutely convinced that nothing—nothing living or dead, angelic or demonic, today or tomorrow, high or low, thinkable or unthinkable—absolutely nothing can get between us and God's love because of the way that Jesus our Master has embraced us.
