“Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” – Romans 8:39

Nothing can separate us from the relentless, persevering, and all pervasive love of God.

After his sister’s wedding George Mattheson entered into a time of deep pain and despair. As a direct result of his mental anguish, he felt God dictating the words of this great hymn:

“O Love that wilt not let me go, I rest my weary soul in thee; I give thee back the life I owe, That in thine ocean depths its flow May richer, fuller be.”
