In Romans, Paul says that nothing 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.
No matter what we do, no matter what happens to us, he continues loving us. The love of God always shines on us. The pleasure of prayer remains open to us, and the power of prayer to change us (if not our circumstances).
Can we say the same? That nothing He does will stop us loving him?
That no matter what he sends us, no matter what happens, we will still love him, unconditionally?
Lord, I want to be so in you, so engrafted in you, so hidden in you, that not loving you is inconceivable, for, you and I, we’re one. I am in you, inside your heart, part of you, and you are in me, in my heart, part of me.

Kathy says
The love of God expresses His desire to transform me into His image and to reflect His glory in all I do and say. Nothing can separate us from His love for His people. I feel so humbled when I realize the extent of His love to send His Son to die for my sins in order that I would be able to experience His love and person.
