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. 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.

- Romans 8:31-39

Wherever you go, He is with you. His love is there.

When feelings of loneliness seem to creep in, the devil will try to lie to us and say God has abandoned and forgotten about us. This couldn’t be further from the truth!

Throughout scripture, we see examples and promises of God’s presence and how He is always with us. He has promised to never leave us nor forsake us. Ever.

Nothing in all of creation, in the sky, in hell, or on earth, has the power to take us away from God’s love.

How amazing is that? We may read or hear this scripture preached often, but how much do we really grasp the weight of its meaning?

• In weeping and rejoicing, He is with you.
• In the evening and the morning, He is with you.
• When you rise and fall, He is with you.
• Whether you’re at church, the office, the DMV, the grocery checkout line, He is with you.

Even in the times where you cried out in the dead of night and you felt like no one could hear you, He was there with you, listening and loving you.

Not once has He forgotten you. Not once has He abandoned you. Not once has He stopped loving you. His love is everlasting, powerful, beautiful, incomparable, and indescribable. His love is for you, and you can have as much of Him as you want.

With God, you never have to fear being alone. His Spirit is alive within you, present always.

Today, rest in the security of His love as you spend time with Him!

Hear His whisper to you today: “Nothing can separate us, beloved. I am here to stay.”

Prayer: Lord, remind me of your amazing love when loneliness tries to creep in. Help me to rest in the security and assurance of your love that is here to stay forever. I am never alone, and never will be. Nothing can separate us!

With Love,
Sarah Sherstad

Message from Kara

Romans 8 has become one of those passages I return to whenever life feels uncertain.

There are days when circumstances try to convince us that God is distant or that we've somehow been forgotten. But these verses gently remind us that His love isn't based on how we feel or what we're experiencing. His love is secure because His character never changes.

If you're carrying something heavy today, I hope you'll hold tightly to this promise: God is for you. He walks with you, strengthens you, and nothing—not today or ever—can separate you from His love.

I'm praying this truth gives you confidence and peace today. 

 Cheering you on,
Kara  🤍 

Applying this to your Daily Routine

One of the best ways to remember God's faithfulness is by writing down His promises. A prayer journal creates space to reflect on Scripture, record answered prayers, and revisit the ways God has carried you through every season.
