Nothing Can Separate 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 8:38-39

If the guilt you are feeling makes you stop closing to God that is only a tool of our enemy to stop following God. Guilt is their weapon, as long as we are sincere in asking forgiveness, we shouldn’t underestimate our forgiving God.

I remember there was a time when felt of giving up playing in worship team because I had a family time conflict with Sunday service. So it was usual every Sunday I got late and lose my mood of worship. I really don’t want to be late but conflict is inevitable as well as hurting feelings. So I talked to our pastor telling him that I want to quit because not deserving anymore. I feel the guilt of worshiping God with my bad mood earlier and so on.

Our pastor said that, that guilt only want me stop what I’m currently doing for God. He added that I should ask for his forgiveness and ask to give me other ways of serving him but don’t ever stop because, “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”
