normally when people say stuff like "God is my Valentine" i think it is pretty lame. But today on the back of my bulletin from church there was a sweet poem. so i would like to share it with you.
God's Valentine
by Paul J. Twist
Of all the valentines ever sent, none is more significant than the love message from God in John 3:16
that He gAve
His onLy
BegottEn
SoN,
That whosoever
believeth In Him
should Not perish,
but have Everlasting life."
My dictionary says a valentine is "a note containing a message of sentimental love." But God's valentine is more than emotional sentiment. It expresses tenderness, of course, but it also offers God's solution to man's greatest need, the salvation of his eternal soul. God's message of love was in His heart before creation and, according to Romans 5:8, "while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." God's valentine is not for those who think they are good, but for those who admit they are needy sinners.
If you receive God's valentine with a repentant heart of faith, His love will fill your heart and life with great joy and lasting peace. His valentine expresses love that will never end!
I just thought that was really cool. It is cooler if the word VALENTINE from John 3:16 would work right, but my blogger spacing is dumb. but it is still the same sort of effect. I hope that it is God's love you are seeking after and receiving on this valentine's day. God longs for you to be completely in love with him.
happy valentine's day.
