I just heard this song for the first time recently, and it just keeps echoing in my mind. I spent some time yesterday reading THIS blog, and I was just heartbroken. I don’t know this family personally, but I’m grieving for and with them. I’m incredibly thankful for the hope that comes with knowing and loving Jesus. I cannot fathom what it would be like to walk through what they’re going through without Him and the promise of His love and presence. I’m thankful for the grace He has bestowed upon this amazing woman, and I’m thankful for the unconditional love that can be heard through the words of her husband. He has truly loved her well – in sickness and in health. My heart breaks for their children and for the extremely difficult days ahead, and I cling to the hope that they cling to. I can only pray that I would live and die with such grace. If you pray, please take some time today to lift this family up before the One who knows and loves them most. And as you listen to this song, be blessed with the truth that there is absolutely nothing that can keep us from the love of Christ.
Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. – Romans 8:35, 37-39
