8Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.
1 Corinthians 13:8
This was one of two verses we picked for this year's Crossroads event. This passage is at the end of the famous love passage that is read at every wedding. We actually used just the beginning of the verse: Love never fails. Think about that. True love - actual love - never fails. It is always there.
It is easy to say we have, "fallen out of love", or "I never really loved them". What we are talking about is our own human failings. It's not love's fault. Love hasn't gotten less potent. Love is constant. The same is true of God's presence. We can feel him at youth events, but when we get home we feel that he is gone. He isn't. God is there. God' grace is there. God's love is there.
Love never fails.
