steadfast love

Loyalty through everything

Steadfast love is love that remains constant and unwavering through difficulty or time.

The phrase appears frequently in religious contexts, especially translations of the Hebrew Bible, where it describes God's enduring faithfulness to his people.

Outside religious use, it emphasizes loyalty and commitment that doesn't falter: Their steadfast love survived decades of hardship.
