"The gospel of grace calls out: Nothing can ever separate you from the love of God made visible in Christ Jesus our Lord."
Brennan Manning, "Reflections for Ragamuffins"
Brennan Manning goes on to state different situations...will this situation separate you from the love of God? Will that? Ultimately, the answer is that nothing can or will separate you from God's love. Period. End of discussion. In our experience, we may not always feel that love, but it is still there. We may feel it through another person. I was thinking about my oldest, who isn't much into God at this point on her journey. She feels love in her life but she doesn't really identify it as God's love. It is definitely love, though, and God is love. And nothing can separate her from God's love. Comforting, that. Today, let's look for the opportunities to share God's love with others. It may be the only experience of God they have today...and it may need to come through us. Love, heidi
