Can anything ever separate us from Christ's love? Does it mean he no
longer loves us if we have trouble or calamity, or are persecuted, or are
hungry or cold or in danger or threatened with death? . . . No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours
through Christ, who loved us. And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate
us from his love. Death can't, and life can't. The angels can't, and the demons
can't. Our fears for today, our worries about tomorrow, and even the powers of
hell can't keep God's love away. Whether we are high above the sky or in the
deepest ocean, 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 8:35–39 not
“Therefore will the Lord
wait, that he may be gracious unto you (Isa. 30:18). . . .
“When thy God hides His face, say
not that He hath forgotten thee. He is but tarrying a little while to make thee
love Him better; and when He cometh, thou shalt have joy in the Lord, and shalt
rejoice with joy unspeakable. Waiting exercises our grace; waiting tries our faith; therefore, wait on in hope;
for though the promise tarry, it can never come too late. —C. H. Spurgeon” Streams in the Desert
