Did You Know... that "Love" never fails? [1 Corinthians 13:8]
How is it possible in a world we hear of all the relationship breakups, fighting and even wars that "Love" never fails?
The answer is that our understanding of "Love" is upside down. Today's understanding of "Love" is that I get what I want, and I get it now, at the lowest cost of discomfort.
I have had the pleasure of performing dozens of marriage ceremonies, and with each couple I ask them why they "Love" the other partner? Then I teach them what the True understanding of "Love" is.
"Love" is the giving of all of oneself for another. As much as we may try to "Love" with this understanding so often we fail, and so the faith and hope that "Love" never fails, fades into a mist that is only in fairy tales. Not True!
Watching the Disney movie Frozen this weekend with my granddaughter, Valentina, I saw the understanding of "Love" animated in what is supposed to be a children's movie, as the younger sister gives up all to save the life of her older sister and learns what True "Love" is.
There is another story that illustrates the True example of "Love" which is the story of God loving You so much that He was born, He lived, suffered, died and rose again to prove "Love" never fails.
Everyone else may fail to live up to "Love" but God is "Love" and will never fail to "Love" you, and He proved it by giving all for You.
Take the time to look up, read and meditate on these powerful scriptures on "Love" and let them widen, lengthen, heighten and deepen your knowledge of "Love" and the One who will never fail You.
"Love" scriptures [1 Corinthians 13, 1John 4, Ephesians 3:14-21, John 3:16]
"Love" never fails!

Song: Mary, Did You Know?
Group: Pentatonix
Lyrics:
Mary did you know that your baby boy will one day walk on water?
Mary did you know that your baby boy will save our sons and daughters?
Did you know that your baby boy has come to make you new?
This child that you've delivered, will soon deliver you
Mary did you know that your baby boy will give sight to a blind man?
Mary did you know that your baby boy will calm a storm with his hand?
Did you know that your baby boy has walked where angels trod?
And when you kiss your little baby, you have kissed the face of God
Mary did you know, Mary did you know, Mary did you know
The blind will see, the deaf will hear and the dead will live again
The lame will leap, the dumb will speak, the praises of the lamb
Mary did you know that your baby boy is Lord of all creation?
Mary did you know that your baby boy will one day rule the nations?
Did you know that your baby boy is heaven's perfect Lamb?
This sleeping child you're holding is the great I am
Mary did you know, Mary did you know, Mary did you know
