Life is full of ups and downs, and sometimes it just feels like we can never “win”. We all experience different fears: maybe it’s not fitting in at school, maybe it’s what others think about you, or it could even be replaying things that you regret. As Christian’s we have been given an incredible gift when it comes to fear: NOTHING can separate us from the love of God.

We’re reminded in Romans that God’s love for us never changes, no matter what we’re facing. His love is always there, waiting for us to take hold of it. It’s easy to feel unworthy when we’re overwhelmed or scared. What’s great about God is that His love sees us beyond what our minds say. We don’t have to earn His love or attention, it’s always available to us.

When you’re feeling anxious or afraid, take time to pray and remind yourself of this truth: “You love me no matter what”.

Great ways to remind yourself of this are to listen to music that declares His love for you, dive into the Bible, and even talk to your friends about your struggles. Don’t stay sitting in your fear - seek His ways for you to be reminded of His love for you.

• Bottom Line: Nothing can separate us from God’s love—no fear, no worry, no mistake. His love is constant.
• Response: Write a reminder for yourself that nothing can separate you from God's love. Put it on a sticky note or a flash card to keep with you, so when you feel afraid you have a tangible reminder of where your trust lies.
