God’s Love Doesn’t Grow Old

I’m just getting home from out of town. I was at a speaking engagement regarding my book. What I realized when I finished my “talk” was even though the events of my book took place many years ago, repeating the story of how God showed His love to us through the kindness and giving of so many folks; His love just does not get old. God loves us unconditionally and that never wavers. Some folks in attendance knew us personally and remembered the incidences I talked about.  Others attending were hearing this good news for the first time. I’m not comparing us to the disciples, but I think there is a slight similarity.  They lived, walked, studied and preached with Jesus. They experienced His love first hand. Fast forward to us, thousands of years later, learning, studying, sharing those gospel readings and stories. They just don’t get old. God’s love is so great, so amazing, and never loses its power!

The children’s song, Jesus Loves Me, says it so succinctly.  “Jesus Loves me, this I know. For the Bible tells me so.” His love is real, fresh and new each morning you open your eyes for another day. How blessed are we, as Christians to know Him, to love Him, and to share His good news!

Love one another…that never grows old.  Love your neighbor as yourself…that never grows old. Love the Lord, your God above all others….that never grows old.

Jesus loves YOU, this I know.
