How many of you have Valentine's Day shopping on your list of things to do today? We often spend unlimited time and boundless money on finding just the perfect gift to impress that special someone. But that kind of love can be fleeting. I have been known to say I "love" a blouse or I "love" my dogs. **OK... I really do LOVE my dogs** But seriously, love is a word that suffers from being used too loosely. If you look at today's scripture from the 1st book of John, it plainly says that God is love. So that is definitely a high standard to adhere to. He loved us so much that he sent his only son to die a painful, torturous and humiliating death. Jesus was the Son of God and was pinned to a cross like a common thief! He died a hideous death because of his LOVE for us. He wanted to save us from eternal separation from God the Father. That kind of love is worth more than any card or box of chocolates! I pray you have a wonderful and blessed Valentine's Day!
Blessings...
