Today we set aside a day to celebrate our love for someone.
Love and romance. In reality everyday should be a day we show love. Not only for that special person, but to all our family, friends and neighbors.
God’s Word is very clear when it comes to love.
He loves each of us with a love so great, He sent His Son, Jesus, to earth to die on a cross, be buried and rise from death, so our sin can be forgiven and we can have everlasting life.
Then He tells us to love one another.
True unconditional love.
So, Happy Valentine’s Day. Today and every day show love to one another.
Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day. A day set aside to show love to a sweetheart, spouse, or friend!
God’s Word tells us to love, not only on one day a year but every day.
If you have that special someone, then show them that love tomorrow. Candy, flowers or a card. Be thankful for them.
Some do not have the pleasure of having that loved one. It can be a hard day for them. If you know a widow or a single person who may be sad, do something special for them.
A phone call, card or message will be especially welcome.
Sharing the love of God could be the one thing that could bring lasting joy into the heart of that person.
Then came Peter to him, and said, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? till seven times? Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven. Matthew 18:21-22
Forgive! Forgiveness is a choice. Forgive someone who has hurt you. It may be your parents, sibling, friend or enemy.
Forgiveness will free you. Jesus said 70 times 7. Seven, God’s perfect number. How can we forgive? Ask Jesus to help you. Not only to forgive but to forget and move on.
There is a beautiful song…Turn your eyes upon Jesus, look full into His wonderful face and the things of earth will grow strangely dim in the light of His glory and grace.
In these troubled times, we need to look to Jesus.
“Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.” Hebrews 12:2
“The Only Thing Necessary for the Triumph of Evil is that Good Men Do Nothing” John F. Kennedy
Evil is running rapid all over the world, and even in the USA and it seems that nothing is being done. What can I do? You might ask. One man or woman with the power of the Holy Spirit can make a difference one soul at a time. How? Witness of the love and grace of God. JESUS is the answer. Do something today, tell someone about Jesus, the Prince of Peace. Don’t be a “do nothing”.
1 Peter 2:15 For so is the will of God, that with well doing ye may put to silence the ignorance of foolish men:
First, the Lord, Jesus, is worthy of our worship. Not only did He give His life for us by dying on the cross, but He loves us and makes intercession for us to the Father when our enemy attacks us.
He created all things. This world is beautiful. Mountains, valleys, rivers, oceans, forests, deserts, and all kinds of animals. We could tell of so much beauty created by Him.
What is amazing, is that He has pleasure in the things He created. He gives us the opportunity to enjoy all the things He created also.
Today, look around. Really look around at the beauty God has created. Then praise Him for all of it, small or large.
