There are many definitions of true love, but we can only find true love that never fails and is perfect in God because God is love (1 John 4:8, 16). New Testament Greek language separates the word love into four different categories: 1) Eros which is erotic, passionate love. 2) Phileo is the love of friends or brotherly love, 3) Storge is the love of parents for children, and 4) Agape, which refers to God’s love for us and our reciprocal love for God and others (1 John 4:19).
God’s love is unselfish, unconditional, unfailing, eternal, and is the highest form of love (Psalm 36:7; 136:26). He wants the best for you. Because of God’s agape love, He sent His Son Jesus Christ to reconcile us and redeem us (John 3:16, 15:13; Romans 5:8; 1 John 4:9-10).
There is no greater love than our Heavenly Father has for us, as His children (1 John 3:1). He loves us no matter what! His love transforms our lives and moves the mountains of circumstances that would keep us from knowing Him and receiving all that He has provided for us through Jesus’ finished work on the cross.
