Romans 8:37-39 (Common English Bible)

³⁷ But in all these things we win a sweeping victory through the one who loved us. ³⁸ I’m convinced that nothing can separate us from God’s love in Christ Jesus our Lord: not death or life, not angels or rulers, not present things or future things, not powers ³⁹ or height or depth, or any other thing that is created.

 

I have been thinking about fear all week, our fears that get in the way of truly being in conversation and relationship with God and i have come to this conclusion.

What do i need to fear? I am convinced that nothing can separate me from God’s love. So i know i will be ok, even if things are how i want them. I know that God’s got my back. God loves me, why not let him know what keeps me from being closer to God. I know God will understand. You know that has been the biggest release of this week, that i know that God loves me for me. God knows I am giving it my best. So i continue on striving to grow closer to God knocking down walls (with God’s help) that would keep me from a closer relationship, and you know what you can do the same. Know that God loves you and wants you to be close to him. Don’t let fear get in the way.  I am convinced that we can be closer to God and one another as long as we don’t let fear get in the way.

Peace
