Do you wonder…
Will God ever turn away from me? Even if I’m really awful?
If my loved one walks away from their faith, will they still be with me in heaven?
Am I in this difficult season because God is upset with me? Am I being punished?
The core of these questions is fear.
Fear that God will stop loving us.
Many Scriptures affirm that he won’t.
Romans 8 specifically reminds us that nothing we do—or do not do—will ever make God stop loving us.
We are held secure in God’s love because of Jesus and our faith in him.
Whether you’ve secretly wondered about Christ’s love for you or a loved one, let this meditation reassure you that you are held secure in God’s loving grip.
Find a quiet space, take a few deep breaths, and allow your fears to fade away.

The entire meditation text is as follows:
Romans 8:35, 37-39 NLT
35 Can anything ever separate us from Christ’s love? Does it mean he no longer loves us if we have trouble or calamity, or are persecuted, or hungry, or destitute, or in danger, or threatened with death? 37 No, despite all these things, overwhelming victory is ours through Christ, who loved us.
38 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. 39 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.
