God’s love is unlike any love expressed by any in our culture today — His love never fails (Psalms 52:8, NIV), endures forever (Psalms 106:1, NIV), is uncalculating (Proverbs 30:5, NIV), and not motivated by personal gain (1 John 3:16, NIV). While His love cannot be matched, we can open our heart to His word and do our best to spread His grace. Take a moment each day to express your love for God and let His love flow through you with these daily devotionals.

Pastor James MacDonald hosts the radio program “Walk in the Word” heard by more than 3 million people each day. In this short daily devotional, “What Love Looks Like,” MacDonald breaks down perhaps the most famous words about love:
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love 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 13:4-8 (NIV)
