People Are Like Hourglasses
People can be like hourglasses. For a season, the love feels steady and full, but over time the sand slowly slips away. Sometimes it runs out far sooner than we ever expected or hoped. Relationships change, priorities shift, and human love can come with conditions, expectations, and limitations. That reality can hurt, especially when we have given our whole heart.
But Jesus’ love is not like that.
His love is unconditional and never-ending. It does not run out, fade away, or depend on how well we perform. Jesus loved us enough to die on the cross so that we could be forgiven of every sin and live in grace. That kind of love is eternal—steady, faithful, and always present.
While human love may ebb and flow, God’s love remains constant. He does not place stipulations on His grace or walk away when we fall short. He stays. He forgives. He restores.
So when people disappoint you or seasons of love come and go, remember this truth: God’s love for you is forever. Don’t take that for granted. Hold onto it, rest in it, and let it remind you that you are never unloved and never alone.
