“The Lord appeared to us in the past, saying: ‘I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with unfailing kindness.’”
—Jeremiah 31:3 (NIV)
Have you ever felt as though love was conditional—based on how well you performed, how you looked, or what you could offer someone? Human love often comes with limitations, but God’s love is radically different. In Jeremiah 31:3, God declares that His love is everlasting. It has no beginning or end, no conditions or expiration dates. His love for you is constant and unchanging, no matter what season of life you are in or how far you feel from Him.
There are times in life when we question if we are truly loved—when circumstances feel overwhelming, and God seems distant. Yet, Jeremiah 31:3 reminds us that God’s love is not based on our feelings or situations. It is a promise, rooted in His character. He has drawn you to Himself with unfailing kindness, pursuing you with a love that knows no bounds. Think back to moments when you’ve felt undeserving of love but experienced God’s grace and faithfulness. Those are glimpses of His everlasting love at work.
This truth becomes even more powerful when we consider how God’s love meets us in every season. In moments of joy, His love celebrates with us. In times of sorrow, His love comforts us. In seasons of doubt, His love patiently guides us back to Him. No matter where you are, God’s love is present, steady, and unwavering. Have you allowed this truth to shape how you see yourself and your relationship with Him? What difference would it make to live each day secure in His everlasting love?
God’s everlasting love invites us into a relationship that transforms our hearts. As we embrace His love, we find peace, strength, and purpose, even in life’s uncertainties. Let’s respond to His love by loving Him wholeheartedly and sharing that love with others. His love is not just for us to receive but also to reflect, drawing others into the hope and joy found in Him.
Prayer:
Lord, thank you for your everlasting love that never changes. Help me to rest in the assurance of your love, no matter what I face. Teach me to reflect your kindness and grace to others, so they too can experience the beauty of your unchanging love. Amen.
