Encouraging Scripture-We can not be separated from God's love

I am sure that nothing can separate us from God's love--not life or death, not angels or spirits, not the present or the future, and not powers above or powers below. Nothing in all creation can separate us from God's love for us in Christ Jesus our Lord!
Romans 8:38-39 (NIV) from Bible Gateway

Just think, we have been promised that nothing, repeat nothing, can separated us from God's love!  Regardless if you have messed up every single relationship in your life, you can't chase God away.  If every person you have loved has left you, rest assured that God won't.  We don't have to walk on the proverbial eggshells with Him.  We can and should be very real with our Lord.  If there is something we need to approach someone about, we can test it out on Him first.  People can, will, and do leave, but God doesn't.  Once we receive Him in our hearts, He's there for the duration.  There aren't nearly enough absolutes in our lives and in this world, but that's one.  When you think about it, it's pretty awesome to know we can have God in our lives every day.
