Valentine’s Day!
romance
roses
chocolate
candlelight dinner
Valentine card
We strive so hard this one day each year
to create and experience the
“perfect” expressions of “love”
unrealistic expectations
we put on ourselves and others!
Don’t get me wrong . . .
I love Valentine’s Day
and roses and chocolate!
It’s good to express kindness and love
on Valentine’s Day!
But I am being challenged
For God so loved . . .
that He gave
I, in return, am to love by
loving God with all my being
loving myself because God loves me
giving a smile
truly listening to the person who just needs to be heard
being patient, kind, and understanding
encouraging with my words
praying for and loving my enemy
forgiving and loving the person who hurt me
So tomorrow
on Valentine’s Day
and every day
use me, Lord,
to be the human expression of
your love
a love that keeps on giving!
