You know the greatest loves of all time are over now.
~ Taylor Swift, The 1
T Sweezy was onto something with these lyrics. Because no matter how epic the love story, there will always eventually come a point where either death or distance or disagreement do them part.
Except (thank the Lord!) God's love is different. Death, distance, disagreement, demons, depth, despair can't touch it.
Romans 8:38-39 "For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
Jeremiah 31:3 "I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore I have continued my faithfulness to you."
The good news of the Gospel is that there is no expiry date on God's love for us. There is no end to His love, because God is love and from everlasting to everlasting He is. God's love for us is everlasting and His faithfulness continues always.
So, Taylor, my humble request to update that line:
The Greatest Love of all time is everlasting and you can know it right now.
