Only You


The WORD today (see http://usccb.org/bible/readings/103113.cfm) reminds me that no one can separate us from the Love of God.

The first reading is very inspiring and assuring.

No, in all these things we conquer overwhelmingly through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor present things, nor future things, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord

God did not spare his own son but allowed him to die for us! And we see that nothing and no one can separate us from God's love. Satan is powerless against God's love and not any of his creatures is strong enough to separate us from God's love.

Yes, it is inspiring and assuring. But i think only one person can separate us from God's love --- ourselves.

God loves us so much that he gave us free will. We are free to choose to love him or not. God will always love us, but it depends on us if we will allow Him to, and if we will respond to that love. That is why it is up to us to remain in his love or not.

May we always be conscious to remain in God's love.

Father God,
Thank you for today! Thank you for another day to live. Thank you for the reminder that no one and nothing is strong enough to separate me from your love. Lord, i know that only I have the power to choose to be separated from your love. I pray that it may never happen. May i always desire you, may I always allow you to love me, and may I always remain in your love. Amen.

Blessed day!

In Christ,
