Through the Lens of Love

eDevotion
Encouragement for your daily walk with God

Nothing can separate us from the love of God. What a blessed thought! No matter what comes our way, it cannot disconnect us from His love. He has the sufficiency to see us through!

One benefit of that is that I don’t have to comprehend God’s love for me by circumstances alone. And that is a temptation, isn’t it? “God, if You really love me, why did this happen to me?” 

While He didn’t promise that we would escape difficulties and hardships, we have His promise that His love will be greater than them all—His love will endure.

Consider Jesus - He didn’t escape the excruciating experience of the cross, yet He was the Beloved of God. And so are you! So the next time you find yourself in dire straights, evaluate your circumstances from God’s point of view—His love for you. Love is God’s main motive for everything that happens in your life.

Who will separate us from the love of Christ? Will tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? Romans 8:35
