標  題:沒有甚麼能隔絕你

經  節:誰能使我們與基督的愛隔絕呢?難道是患難嗎?是困苦嗎?是逼迫嗎?是饑餓嗎?是赤身露體嗎?是危險嗎?是刀劍嗎?(羅馬書八章35節)

不管遭遇多麼可怕的事,沒有任何事能使你與神的愛隔絕。你所遭遇的患難與困苦不可能嚴重到一個程度,以致神熱切的愛無法領你超越過它。沒有任何逼迫是太痛苦,以致神的愛無法為你帶來安慰。饑餓也許讓你覺得亟需食物的供應,但是你永遠不會覺得神的愛不夠,以致不能飽足。貧窮不能劫掠你享受神的熱愛,即使是死亡本身,也不能搶奪天父對你無盡的愛。

如果依照環境來看神的愛,你會變得很困惑。你有時候可能會問:「慈愛的神怎能容許這種事發生在我身上?」你可能開始懷疑聖經中清清楚楚的記述。神應許你永遠不會與祂的愛隔絕;祂並不是說你永遠不會遇到患難、困苦、逼迫、饑餓、貧窮或危險。如果懷疑神怎能既愛你,又讓你經歷困境,想想耶穌的一生。

若真實瞭解基督死在十字架上為我們付出的愛,你會信心十足地面對困境。如果知道沒有任何東西,能使我們與神完全的愛隔絕,你會在每個環境中看到神表達祂的愛。不要以環境來衡量神的愛。相反地,要以神的愛來評估你的環境。


Nothing Can Separate You

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)

Nothing you could ever experience, no matter how terrible or frightening, could ever separate you from the love of God. No tribulation and distress you might ever suffer could be so intense that God’s love for you is not even more fervent. No persecution could be so painful that God’s love cannot bring comfort. Famine might starve you of food, but you will never hunger for the Father’s love. Poverty cannot strip you of God’s compassion, just as even death itself is incapable of robbing you of your heavenly Father’s infinite love.

If you base your view of God’s love on your circumstances, you will become confused. There may be times when you will ask, “How could a loving God allow this to happen to me?” You may begin to question what you find clearly stated in the Word of God. God promised that you would never be separated from His love; He did not say that you would never face hardship, persecution, poverty, or danger. If you doubt that God could love you and still allow you to experience difficult experiences, consider the life of Jesus.

If you allow the death of Jesus on the cross to forever settle any questions you might have about God’s love, you will approach difficult circumstances with confidence. Knowing that there will never be anything that could separate you from God’s perfect love, you will watch to see how God expresses His love in each circumstance. Don’t ever judge God’s love based on your circumstances. Instead, evaluate your circumstances from the perspective of God’s love.
