For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
After a stroke, it's easy to feel separated. In my own experience, with a difficulty to read and speak, I spent time seemingly apart - even in a crowded place.
Paul's words serve as a reminder that despite what life throws at any of us, we can't be separated from God. His love is always with you.
Does that mean that post-stroke life is rosy and always ideal, always easy? Certainly not. Life will not stop giving out challenges on a daily basis, large and small. But through at all, no matter the outcome on this life and on this earth, that love abides. Always.
