Romans 8:37-39 (New King James Version)
37 Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.
38 For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come,
39 nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Sounds pretty much all inclusive.   But its not.  Life and death have no power over Gods love for us.  Angels, His first creations can have no say of His love for us.  Satan tries daily to no avail to seperate us from the love of God.  No pincipalities or powers, no governments can seperate us.  Some are persecuted for that love, but God never leaves nor forsakes His chosen ones.  Nothing now nor to come can get between us and God.  He is but a breath away and even in the revelations to come His promises are there, embedded in His Word.   He will never leave us.  There is nothing too high, nor nothing too deep that Gods love can not cross or transend to reach us.  The next is "any other created thing" which pretty much covers God created or man created thing can overcome or keep us from the love of God.  So what gives ?  What is the loop hole in Gods love ?

The scripture did not include our past.

Too many times we dwell in the past.  Allow the guilt of our flesh to bind us and hold us back from the love that God wants to share.  We repent and ask forgivness, but do you really leave them there ?  The bible says lay your burdens on Him.

Psalm 55:22
Cast your burden on the LORD,And He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved

There is no reason for Gods love to be held back by our past whether it is 10 years ago or our sins of yesterday.

2 Corinthians 4:15-17
15 For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God.
 16 For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day.
 17 For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory

Here we see where Gods grace and mercy are there for us every day.

John 3:16
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

Why did God sacrifice Himself in the flesh ?  LOVE.  If God loves you this much, why carry your past around ?  God not only can but wants to carry it for you.  He wants to cast it as far as the east is from the west.  What are you thinking ?  "That's ok God, this is mine, I'll take care of it"...If that were true then you could save yourself.  Don't fall through the only loophole that can keep you from Gods love.  When you repent, give it all to God, let Him know, "I am leaving this here with you Lord and I will never look (think) upon it again"  Do that with heartfelt sincerity and not only will a load lift from your shoulders, but you better brace yourself for an impact of Holy love unlike anything you have ever felt......God bless ...and enjoy..
