“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 8:39 ESV)

“Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, 1I will never leave you nor forsake you.’”

(Hebrews 13:5 ESV)

I heard a song yesterday, “You Never Gave Up On Me” by The Afters:

“You never gave up on me, You never gave up on me.
Every time I walked away, You came running after me.
Oh, you never gave up on mе, You never gave up on mе.
When I gave up on myself, oh Lord.
You never gave up on me, You never gave up on me.
You never gave up on me, You never gave up on me.”

You Never Gave Up on Me by the Afters

Have you ever felt like God gave up on you? I will be honest. I have several times. There have been times over the years that I felt like God gave up me because I wasn’t living the way I should have been. But it was me, not God. God was with me all the time. He was walking right by my side even when I was deep in sin. He was just waiting for me to decide to come back to Him. I did come back, eventually. And I am so much happier now.

God completely turned my life around. He is still working on me and always will be. We are not perfect by a long shot. We have free will and will keep messing up no matter how hard we try not to.

The next time you mess up, remember, God never gives up on you, so don’t give on Him. 

Have a blessed day, everyone.
