God's love

Ps 136:1 Give thanks to the Lord for he is good, his love endures forever
Endure – to carry on through despite hardships; to continue in existence, to last. (American Heritage Dict)
God’s love carries us through hard times and hardships – always.
God’s love LASTS, it keeps going – forever.
God’s love "always hopes, always trusts always perseveres. Love never fails." (I Cor 13:7-8).
Nothing can separate us from God’s love. Hardships may come our way – we may go thru the darkest valley – but he is with us. (Ps 23) Nothing can separate us – if there is a severe famine, God’s love is still there. If we are in danger, God’s love is there. If we are persecuted or treated unfairly, God’s love is there. In the face of death itself – God’s love is there. “For your sake we face death all day long.” (Ps 44:22) Death cannot separate us from the love of God. We can face death because God’s love upholds us. Nothing in all creation can separate us from the love of Christ.
Separate – to set or keep apart; to space apart; to differentiate or distinguish; to become disconnected or severed. (American Herit.)
God’s love is always with us – circumstances do not disconnect us from God’s love. If something terrible happens, it does not sever our connection with God’s love.
God’s love is upon us like white on rice. You cannot separate white from rice. You can’t make God’s love go away. It endures – it stays with you despite hardships. Hardships do not mean God doesn’t love you!! God’s love does not fail. He never lets go.
