Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. John 15:13
That's love, and that is the Greatest Love of All. On this day that was set aside in the name of love I want you each to take a look at your life and take inventory is there any greater love or gift than this? I am sure your significant other loves you, but would they really just lay down their lives for you, I am sure not without negotiation. The cards, that will be tossed to the side shortly are nice, the flowers that will wither and die soon, the chocolate candy that on tomorrow more than half of us will complain was nice but we didn't need. The over priced ill prepared dinner with not the best service is all nice. BUT THIS, is the best gift of all that God loved us so much that He sent His only begotten Son, and that Jesus loved us so much that He laid down His life for you and me. That's love.
It's a love that gives every morning all day, no matter if you've been good or bad, if you have not been your best, if you have not lived and loved according to His word, everyday He keeps on loving you and me and giving us a chance to get it right. He loved us so much that even though He knew we would all fall short He still came hung, bled and died for us. He loved us so much that even though He knew that on today you would be struggling with whatever your issue is; He still gave us brand new mercy this morning and you don't have to try and savage it because you get new ones in the morning.
Remember this on today what ever gift you get or don't get none of them will mean as much as this, none of them cost what this cost, enjoy them but if you haven't already love on Jesus, because He is loving on you.
Blessed to Be A Blessing,
