SECURE IN HIS LOVE

“Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?  shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?  As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.   Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.  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 creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Romans 8:35-39 KJV

No matter what happens, there is nothing and nobody that can separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.  It doesn’t matter how many vicious attacks satan hurls at us, or how many lies that he tells us because we are protected and are safe and secure in God’s love. 

Civilla Durfee Martin wrote one of my favorite hymns “God Will Take Care of You”.  “No matter what may be the test, God will take care of you; Lean, weary one, upon His breast, God will take care of you.”  I’m so glad that God takes care of us.  We have a loving, compassionate and protective Heavenly Father.

Are you weary?  Do you feel like going to bed and staying there?  Lean upon God and allow Him to take care of you.  God loves you so much that He gave His beloved Son to die on the cross for your sins so you can be saved and go to Heaven for all eternity.  You are secure in His love.  O how God loves you!
