And I am convinced 

that 

nothing 

can ever 

separate us 

from God's love. 

Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, 

neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow - not even the powers of hell can separate us from God's love.

No power in the sky above or in the earth below - indeed, 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 8:38-39 NLT

My hope today is that you can feel the redemptive strands wrapping around you and holding you. 

As we sit with Paul and feel his conviction from 20 centuries ago, may it be our truth too.

Paul is clear that he has considered the spiritual world, his inner landscape, and the outer creation, and there is nothing in any of those spaces capable of separating him from God's love.

While there may be things to fear and struggle with in all those realms, there is nothing, no thing, that can separate us from God's Love.

Nothing.

It cannot happen. 

We are safe.

The redemptive strands of God's Love are enough.

We are Beloved.
