God's Love

February 14th, Valentines Day. As I walked into the grocery store the other day my eyes caught the things being sold for Valentine’s Day. There were heart cookies, cupcakes, chocolates, teddy bears, balloons, and flowers and this was right when you walked in the door. I was overwhelmed by the amount of things there. Then the other day came across an article about Valentine’s Day, “that it’s a day reserved for romance and relationships” and it listed all kinds of ideas to make the day perfect.

As I thought about all the ideas they listed I began to think about how God pursues us, how He wants a relationship with us. That He loves us and desires us. What greater love is there? The bible flows with His love and as we read we begin to recognize His love letter to us. I believe until we see our Heavenly Father we will never comprehend all the love that He has for us.

38 For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39 neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:38-39 (NIV)
