Nothing Can Separate.

“See, I have written your name on the palms of my hands…” – Isaiah 49:16

How powerful is that? The God of all, the Creator of Heaven and Earth, the all-powerful, all-knowing, all-present Lord of the Universe has doodled your name on His hand.

Wow.

Check out Romans 8:31

“If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare His own Son but gave him up for us all, how will He not also with him graciously give us all things?... Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, 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 sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.” – Romans 8:31-32, 35-39

His love is deep. wide. fierce. strong. furious.

And yet, why is it so easy for us to stress over uncertainties? It’s so easy for us to fall into the pit of distrust. It’s so easy for us to believe Satan’s lies that we are not good enough or worthy enough and that God couldn’t care less about us.

Next time you’re feeling alone and distanced from the love of God, remember this – He’s got YOUR NAME lovingly scrawled across His hand. He will never forget you – never abandon you – never leave you.

Let this shout out in your lonliness – NOTHING can separate you from the love of God!

Rejoice in His limitless love today, and trust in His plan for you!

Have a great week, BCSMers! 

Easter.

We all know the effects of sin right?

Shame.

Guilt.

Worry.

Anxiety.

But Jesus, in His perfection and purity, had never known these things. Because He was sinless, He never knew the aftermath of sin, that is, until He became sin for us. And when He chose to take our punishment for sin, all the emotional turmoil of our sin came along with it. On that cross, He felt anxious, guilty, and alone. Hear the heaviness of His heart in His prayer:

"My God, My God, why have you forsaken me?" - Matthew 27:46

Christ was feeling the distance from God that sin brings. But God never abandoned Jesus. He sent His precious Son to do what had to be done in order to give us life. Christ paid the price for our sin and bore the full wrath of God on the cross - the judgement due your sin and my sin - and said, "IT IS FINISHED." And 3 days later, when God raised His Son from the dead, He declared His power over death and His victory over sin.

And the beauty of it all is that He did it FOR YOU. He went through all of this for one reason: because God truly, madly, deeply loves you. Don't miss this. Don't be distracted by egg dying, chocolate bunnies, or easter baskets. Remember the hope and unconditional love this holiday represents and share that love with others!

This Sunday, we will not be having our usual Sunday morning youth services. We want you to spend this Holiday with your family at church, worshipping together and remembering the sacrifice of our loving Savior. Enjoy the day with your family, and we'll see you next week!
