No Greater Love

Happy Valentine's Day to all!

As society buzzes with talk of red roses, candy hearts and chocolate, I wanted to take time to talk about the true gift of love we have been given.

Whether you are married, in a relationship, or single today, please know that you are not alone. God loves you-- and there is no greater love than His! So before you dismiss Valentine's day as just another holiday, make it a day to thank God for His love.

His love for you is perfect:
"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres." 1 Corinthians 13:4-7

Know that He loves you so much that He was willing to give His son's life for you.
"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16

I have attached my Valentine's Day anthem below. It is a music video by the David Crowder Band, "How He Loves". I absolutely love this band and cannot wait to see them at the Winter Jam tour this month.

Happy Valentine's Day and Enjoy!

  1. Elisha,
    Thank you for including me. I feel it is an honor.
    That was a nice 'valentine' to receive this morning. With a wonderful message and a good song to top it off. :)

    I hope you will have a great day bathing in His love.

    Love,
    Lori
