“And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.” Romans 5:5
The love of God, His very Own love that He has placed within our hearts, allows us to never be ashamed. The love of God allows us to abound in hope. The Truth that sets us free and allows us to have life abundantly is that we have God’s love shed abroad in our hearts by the very Spirit of God. And nothing will ever separate us from God’s love. “Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?” Romans 8:35
“Nay, in all things we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is Christ Jesus our Lord.” Romans 8:37-39 Wow, nothing, absolutely nothing can separate us from our Lord and the love of our Father, Who just happens to be God! Nothing present and we are in the present, no creature can and we are creatures, not life, and we are life, do you see where I am going? Once we are truly saved, even our own stupidity can’t separate us from Christ. As we need it, God will prune out anything that is contrary to His Truth, and if it needs to be burned out of us, than Jesus is our refiner’s fire and our fuller’s soap! Once we are chosen by God and empowered by the Holy Spirit to say yes to Jesus, than there is nothing that can ever separate us, including ourselves, because we are no longer our own, that can separate us from Love. God and Jesus are Love, and nothing will separate us from Them! This is such a great gift of salvation; nothing will ever separate us from our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! I hear people say that they can walk away from God, well that’s kind of hard when God said that He would never leave us! Can we walk away from Omnipotence? Now that is peace, perfect peace, that passes all understanding, and that is perfect love that casts out all fear and all torment. We have been baptized with the Holy Spirit and through Him we know who we are, and we know where we are going, and nothing can separate us from it, including ourselves!
God is love, and we are born of Him, through Christ we are one with Him, we now have His Spirit, and we now have His mind. So when we are chosen and empowered to say yes to Jesus Christ and make Him the Lord of our lives, we too become love! And love is not selfish, it is giving, its kind, its helpful, its powerful, full of faith and hope, and love passes knowledge! This is who we are in Christ Jesus and this is why salvation is so great! Through Christ we can’t help but love!

We cannot emphasize this too much .... LOVE, charity, goodness, and gentleness, pring forth sontaneously from God, and as we bask in it we don't have to wait for others to be "deserving" of our love. And what a blessing it is when we don't have to wait for that! Lets take the inititive and love as we are loved by God!
