1 Corinthians 13:8 -- On Unfailing and Perfect Love

"Charity never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away."
1 Corinthians 13:8


I found this strangely comforting today. The message today seems to be that no matter how much things seem to melt down and fly apart, one thing will never, ever fail... and that is God's love for us, and love in general, if it is the pure and good kind, that can solve problems that seem insoluble.

Today, let's latch onto that one true thing, even if we have no idea how it is possible, and let's hold on tightly to that matchless, perfect love that can get us through anything because it NEVER fails. Let's rejoice in that love towards us from God, and let's also pray and ask God to help us learn that same kind of love for other people, so that we can spread that hope in something that will never fail to others.
