Eternal Love
With today being Valentine’s Day, hopefully you’ll be the recipient
of someone’s “love.” Whether you are
showered with flowers, chocolate, a greeting card, or even a simple, “Happy
Valentine’s Day,” I hope you “feel” the love today. But more important than the fleeting commercialization
of a particular day on the calendar in which billions of dollars will be spent to put “love” on
display, is the inexhaustible and eternal divine love of God for you. The Bible verse I always think of on
Valentine’s Day is the amazing verse in Jeremiah 31:3 in which God says to His
people, “I have loved you, my people, with an everlasting love. With unfailing
love I have drawn you to myself.” The unfathomable
mysteries of God, according to the Bible, can be condensed into three profound words, “God
is love” (I John 4:8b). So whether you “feel”
the love today or you’re just not feeling it, know this as an indisputable and
undeniable fact – you are exceedingly loved by God, and not just today, but
every day!

Whew! My hand is floating over the top of my head in an attempt to figure out what anonymous was trying unsuccessfully to tell us. What ever it was, I certainly DID get your message, my friend. God - the God you preach about and I sing and write about - is wonderful to love. We tend to overuse the word "love," yet its simpleness can make us put everything else behind us for just a glimpse of the one we hold dear. I, for one, appreciate those i love - and one of those is you, my pastor, my Captain, my friend! Thank you God, for the love You offer to Your children - even anonymous. may the writer before me feel YOUR love, Lord Jesus, throughout the rest of their life, and may they know that it is from you...the gift of Your Son!
