Valentines Day- lover or hater :-)
Ok…I know, I get it, I completely understand— THIS DAY!!!!! You either love it, love it, love it or hate it. I have heard about all weekend and now…here it is- the day of Love is upon us. It is funny almost to hear the extremes of people thoughts about this day- those new couples who nervously try to decide how much is to much- before I run her off. Those couples who have been dating for quite awhile- who try to figure out how on earth they can do better than they did last year and search (even google) ways to show their special someone that they are the best valentine ever! Those newly engaged couples- who can live on love alone during this special day cause EVERY dime they have- they either spent on a ring or need to save for the future. :-) Those young married couples- who take time to make that first “married” valentines day a beautiful and wonderful experience. Those couple who have been doing the married way of life for quite some time who know that everyday is a special day- so this day is kinda just another day to eat chocolate and bask in the glow of being happily married.
And then…well there are the valentines day haters— the he broke my heart haters, the men are dumb haters, the why can’t he see that i am exactly what he needs and ask me out haters, the I am so anti-valentines day that I am not even coming out of my room-wake me up on the 15th haters…..
This is what I know- I know today is upon us- there will be those who will smile all day and those who drown their sorrow in chocolates they bought for themselves….but here it is. I know that God loves love-He created it- He speaks of it often throughout His message to us and therefore- I ask that you as you walk through this day—as a lover or a “hater” that you remember HIS great love for you and that you will be thankful to Him for that and that you will never forget His love is the greatest love of all. John 3:16.
