There is one place where it is constant in expression and intensity:
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, 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.
I think if anything God is the least constant of all, because he loves us the most. What act of kindness you need today may not be the one you need tomorrow. That's not to say there aren't certain things we all do day after day for people we love. My intent was to express that love changes to meet the needs of those it is shared with. God's included.
