“Who will separate us from the love of Christ? Will tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?” Romans 8:35.
One of His greatest promises to us is that nothing can separate us from the love of God. 
No tribulation or distress we might ever suffer can obliterate the power of His love to carry us through!

This tells me so clearly that I cannot read God’s love for me by my circumstances alone, and that’s often my greatest temptation: 
“How could a loving God allow this to happen to me?” 

But the Lord never promised we would escape hardship, persecution, poverty or danger.
His promise is that His love for us would be greater than any and all circumstances we might have to endure. 

Consider the life of Jesus. 

He went to the cross and died an excruciating death.
He didn’t escape difficulties.

He experienced them more than anyone could ever imagine! 
So, allow His death to settle any questions you have about the love of God!

Don’t ever judge God’s love for you based on circumstances alone-
– but rather evaluate your circumstances from God’s point of view: 
Love. 

It’s His main motive for everything that happens to you.
