Romans 8:38–39 — “Nothing… will be able to separate us from the love of God.”
Opening Reflection: Love Shouts
Fearis loud. It echoes in our minds, narrates worst-case scenarios, and tries to convince us that the story is over. It can prevent us from moving forward, binding us in a cocoon of doubt and anxiety. But Scripture reminds us: love gets the last word. God’s love is unshakable, unbreakable, and unending. It is a beacon of hope that pierces through the darkest moments. Anxiety, grief, or uncertainty can’t silence God’s love. It speaks louder.
Love holds firmer, wrapping us in its embrace when we feel most vulnerable. It stays longer, lingering in our hearts and souls, providing comfort in our most trying times. When fear tries to write your ending, God’s love steps in with a better script. He writes about redemption, restoration, and hope. God’s love rewrites our narratives to reflect His grace. Your fear does not define you. You are held by love, a love that transforms and uplifts. And love always finishes what it starts, guiding us toward a future filled with promise and peace.
Real-Life Example:
You’re grieving a loss, and fear whispers, “You’ll never feel whole again.” It tells you healing is impossible. But God’s love holds you through the ache. It reminds you: this isn’t the end. You begin to see flickers of hope, moments of comfort, signs of life returning. Not because fear disappeared overnight, but because love stayed.
As you continue on your journey of healing and finding solace in God’s love, remember that fear may linger in the shadows, but it doesn’t have the power to dictate your future. It is God’s that will guide you towards wholeness. Embrace the flickers of hope and moments of comfort as reminders that love always triumphs over the darkness of fear. With each passing day, you’ll discover that it is love that has the final word, not fear.

I love the story of in Isaiah 6:8 when he volunteers his service to God. Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?” And I said, “Here am I. Send me!” I wish I were more like him. Of course, if I’d had Isaiah’s… Read more
They are not necessarily the same thing. Tenacity in our faith means we believe God can do what He says He can do, so we pray accordingly. Otherwise, tenacity is little more than human endurance and it’s nothing short of amazing how much human beings can endure. People have mind-boggling ability to “hang-on” in the… Read more
My friend and I hit some thrift stores the other day, five to be exact. I’m dying to show you my “finds”. I really do love bottles, jars, and the bigger the better. You’ve seen these already. But I found these yesterday and I can’t wait to “chalk them up” and add some” frenchy” labels. Nice, huh?… Read more
Hello, March!!! I didn’t realize it was March today until I looked at the calendar. That means spring is fast approaching so that makes this post particularly appropriate. Because with Spring comes sprucing up our homes, painting, changing things around, and all kinds of decorating projects. But did you ever think there might be a… Read more
God does not give us grace to run someone else’s race. But if you’re like me, you don’t always act like you believe it. Sometimes if I look into the future and think about all the “what if’s” I can get so frightened. What if I lose this person? What if I lose that person? What… Read more
So good news, the foot is doing better. I’m doing my tendon stretching exercises throughout the day and they seem to be helping. I’ve been able to take my walk the last two days. Yesterday, the weather was beautiful and warm here in Michigan. I decided I had to spray paint something. My husband said, “You can… Read more
