Happy Valentine's Day

You are loved!!

Today is a man made holiday for all the people out there who want to show someone just how much they love them. It is a holiday that makes many people feel worthless and unloved.

Today I am reminded of a love so great that I wish that all knew it. I will be honest, I don't fully understand Gods love. I don't always get how He loves people that I sometimes feel are 'unlovable'. However, I am reminded that no one is unlovable. God has created each person in love. He has given each person that desire to love and to be loved.

I often find myself and watch others look for that love in the wrong things and in the wrong ways. I want to be liked and accepted by others. I want them to want to be my 'friend'. During those times I forget about the Real, True Love that I already have been given.

I have written about my parents and brothers deaths on here before. There are times that I want nothing more than to be able to call my dad up, go by and see him and let him hug me and tell me that I am loved that everything is going to be okay. And at those times I can choose two different thought processes. I can choose to be sad, depressed and even angry because I am not able to do that or I can be awed by the truth. The truth is that although my earthly father is not here my Heavenly Father is always here. He is just waiting for me to crawl up in his lap, talk to him, let Him put his arms around me and tell me that I am loved and that it is going to be okay.

On this man made holiday that is meant to show love...I just want to tell you that you are loved. I love you and more importantly God loves you. If you have a relationship with Him, that is wonderful. If you don't and are wondering about this love that I speak of, a love that isn't man made and isn't a 1 day love. A love beyond all loves that you could imagine - ask me about it. I would love to talk to you about just how much you are loved.
