No thing

So what are we going to say about these things? If God is for us, who is against us? He didn’t spare his own Son but gave him up for us all. Won’t he also freely give us all things with him? Who will bring a charge against God’s elect people? It is God who acquits them. Who is going to convict them? It is Christ Jesus who died, even more, who was raised, and who also is at God’s right side. It is Christ Jesus who also pleads our case for us. Who will separate us from Christ’s love? Will we be separated by trouble, or distress, or harassment, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? As it is written, We are being put to death all day long for your sake. We are treated like sheep for slaughter. But in all these things we win a sweeping victory through the one who loved us. 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 or height or depth, or any other thing that is created. (Romans 8:31-39, CEB)

If God is for us who or what can be against us?

There is no thing that will come between God and us. If God was willing to step down from the throne and take on our lot and show us how to love and be put on trial and beat and killed because of those who God was trying to love didn’t understand it, then what will keep us from God?

There is no thing that will ever keep us from God.

The grammar checker on my typing wants me to make no thing nothing. And nothing is different than no thing. While they can mean the same thing I wanted the emphasis of NO Thing. There is not a single thing that can separate you from God’s love. Not any thing God created. Not anything humans created. Not anything that you created. No thing will keep God from you.

Share that love with the world. So everyone knows they are loved.

Loving People. Loving God.
