'His Compassions Never Fail'—50 Comforting Bible Verses About God's Love
If you are looking for love, there is no better place to find it than the Bible. God's love is evident in all of His actions. In fact, God is love. Not only does He meet our needs, but he protects us and gives us wisdom. His greatest act of love, however, is giving His son Jesus as a sacrifice for our sins. There is no greater love than that! If you have any doubts, you will want to read through these 50 Bible verses about God's love.
Because human care or connection is not perfect and can seem conditional at times, it might be assumed that God's love for us is the same way. But nothing could be further from the truth. When human relationships fail us and leave us brokenhearted, God never will. He loved us in all of our depravity before any of us loved Him. We didn't do anything to be worthy of His love which also means that we will never lose it—it's not conditional on what we do. This fact should bring us so much joy and comfort.
If you are feeling alone or unworthy, look to the Bible for reassurance. These Bible verses speak to everything that God has done and is doing for us that confirms His love.
