SCRIPTURE: 1Corinthians (NIV) 13:8 Love never fails.
OBSERVATION: What a simple statement, yet it contains within its thought all the verses preceding and following.
In its simplicity, it can be seen in animals caring for their young. It can be seen in a young child reaching out to gently caress the face of a new-born brother or sister.
In its extravagance, it could be seen in my father’s “until death do us part” commitment to my mother with Alzheimer disease. Most of the time she did not know who he was, but he never forgot who she was!
But, truly, no greater display of love’s extravagance can be seen then when the Creator suffered and died for the sins of the man he created.
APPLICATION: It amazes me to think that I am the focus of a love that never fails. It is unearned, undeserved, and too often unappreciated.
Every day may I grow in valuing God’s love.
PRAYER: Lord, oh, how you love me. I am amazed! Amen
