His Love Is Boundless
Let me ask you a question today. During your walk as a Christian have there been times when you wrestled with issues of faith, or lack thereof? We don’t need to feel guilty about not always having a faith that can move mountains. God knows the very intentions of our heart and He doesn’t mind if we come before Him and question what is taking place in our lives. The Lord also doesn’t mind if we argue or even get upset with Him at times. His love for us is boundless and not dependent upon how much faith we have or don’t have.
Our faith is tested and tried through our struggles, in our sorrows and during times of utter chaos in our lives. A particular group of people deal with a wide range of difficult times as their children advance through the different stages of life. I want to encourage all parents today that your prayers have been answered. God, who is loving and faithful, has heard your pleas regarding your children. He also knows that your lives are about to be restored to some form of normalcy as school soon begins.
I have some encouraging words to share with all those parents struggling with rebellious children, those single folks who walk through this life seemingly all alone and those elderly adults who are nearing the end of their lives and wondering if they have made a difference for Christ.
Paul proclaims in Romans 8:38-39:
“For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
Be encouraged knowing that we have a promise from God that He loves us no matter what and nothing can separate us from the Lord, not the evil forces of this world, not us taking our last breath and not even those times in our lives when we just can’t seem to muster up much faith.
