When the Divine Vibes set out to write "Love Never Fails", he wasn't chasing a love song. He turned to 1 Corinthians 13 because of the radical challenge that Paul gave the Corinthians (and to us as well). The essence is that this love is agape love, which is a selfless, sacrificial, and active love. This love isn't a feeling. It's a way of living! It is superior to all spiritual gifts and is eternal, whereas spiritual gifts are temporary and will pass away.
The song encourages us to see this agape love as a powerful, active way of living that serves others and reflects God's nature. Agape directs our focus beyond the flashy spiritual gifts to the building of the body of Christ and Christ-like living.
So what kind of love are you showing today? Is it agape, the type of love that can't be counterfeited by Satan or duplicated by pagans? The agape love in this song is the distinguishing mark or characteristic of the Christian. "By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another."
May this song encourage you to reflect and understand agape love so that you can live it. Remember that the most powerful spiritual gift is love in action.
