How do I love thee let me count the ways. (Elizabeth Barrett Browning)
People can count different ways that they love you. I love you because of this, because of that, and just because.
Valentine’s Day
Valentine’s Day is slowly approaching. People are making personal plans for this special day. Thousands of cards will be purchased, presents will be bought, people will be getting engaged and looking forward to a future together.
When Jesus Loves You on Valentine’s Day
You see when Jesus loves you it’s a different kind of love. It is a special love that no one can take away from you.
When people love each other usually it is in different ways. Jesus doesn’t love you just for a few different reasons. Jesus’ love is an ALL encompassing love. Jesus doesn’t just pick out a few good qualities that you have and then love you, but Jesus looks at the (whole picture) not just a small part of you. You see my friend, when Jesus loves you it’s with ALL his heart. He loves everything about you not just for a few different things about you.
When two people come together many times it’s for so many years. Sometimes it lasts forever and sometimes it does not. Sometimes there is an all burning passion of love for another person and as the years weather on so does your love and the candle slowly burns out. But, when Jesus loves you it’s magnificent and goes on for ever and ever.
So, remember when someone loves you for various different reasons remember that Jesus loves you for ALL of you, not just a part of you. He’s here for you for now and forever and ever. His love for you is infinite, and will never go away. You see you are his child and he is your creator and he will love you until the end of time.
May Jesus Bless you and yours at this special time of Valentine’s Day .
