A Valentine's Love Letter

 

 A Valentine's Love Letter


On this Valentine's Day, how many of you got a card from someone you love? Precious words that made you feel cared about, treasured...loved!

It means alot doesn't it? I especially appreciate when those cards have my husband's (or children's) own handwriting on them, their personal expression, their genuine sentiments of endearment.

And so may I take this opportunity to remind all of you, that God has written a love letter for you. Written in red even (perfect for Valentine's Day)!

His Holy Bible is your love letter, for it delivers the beautiful Gospel message, the proclamation of hope, the recipe for joy, the instruction manuel for life, the map for salvation.

His letter shares of His Creator heart, of His desire for relationship, to have those He can pour all His love into and on. It relates of how He miraculously and lovingly created a beatiful world for His creation. Of how He realized that only by giving His created people a free will, would there be a meaningful reciprocal relationship founded on love. It shares of the fall that resulted from that given free will. It shares of the reality of a perfect God who hates sin because it is in direct defiance to the holiness and purity which is Him. Yet it shares of His loving plan to make a way for His beloved creation to come back into communion and fellowship with Him, to find Truth, inner peace and the hope of a glorious, eternal life of perfect and abiding joy in their loving Creator's presence. It shares of how that plan meant sending His only Son, one of the Trinity, to come down to this fallen world, to walk among it and experience the sadness and heartache as a man, and then to take on all the wrath that is caused as a result of the sins of all mankind, to take that wrath, poured out on Him as He died on Calvary's tree to make a way for peace and joy, a way for you and me. It shares of His overcoming victory over sin and death as He rose again, signifying the glorious Truth that we too can know this victory and joy!

Such a beautiful love story! The most beatiful ever told.

Told for me and you.

In His love letter.

In His Word.

Written in red.

Take a hold of His Word. His love letter. Read the words in red, those words spoken by our Savior. He who IS love!

Read them, meditate on them, live them, let their meaning seep deep into your heart and soul....and bask in His love. On this Valentine's Day.

Every day! 💗

God Stories. What's yours?

    I am marveling at God stories. What's yours?? Our daughter has a good friend. Her name is Stephanie. She is creative, talented, bubbly, sensitive and loves Jesus! And she wrote a book. For kids. About God. Called Always Remember . It is different then most kid's books. It has a poetic lilt which is beautiful, but atypical in its cadence. It's wording is unique; yet lovely. It is simple and it is deep.  It's premise is pivotal, declaring Truth! It is almost layered in that each reading of this basically simple book helps peel back another level of understanding and appreciation. It is a book that is actually instructional. It should be read often as a way to reflect and then to live. The main theme is teaching kids (and adults alike) to... Stop. Ponder. Remember God. To see Him every day in everything. To align daily with who He is. It is beautifully illustrated, with large colorful pictures that engage, teach, enlighten and intrigue. She shared how the book was firs...

Free to Destruct or Thrive

  On this Veteran's Day, I am musing about how we are... FREE! Free.... to destruct or thrive!  0h THANK YOU Heavenly Father for the free nation that is ours! THANK YOU to our service men and women of today and to all those who willingly fought and unselfishly gave...so that we could be free. Free to let our voice by heard, to worship as we please, to vote our conscience! Are these freedoms being challenged? Yes! Is free speech being censored? Yes! Oh there are concerns...ample concerns! So, a disclaimer of sorts. Is what I am about to relate my own humble, personal opinion?  Yes, it is. I am basing it on God's Word which is where I obtain my world view. Which is where I find Truth. Dear readers, I surmise that most of you agree with me, but if you do not, that is your right. We both have rights to express our opinions.And that is because we live in a country that allows us this privilege! And for that, I am thankful! Aren't you? So, getting back to my message. Yes, there...

Thank You and God Bless!!

  Thank you friends and family for coming along on this musing and marveling journey the last three and half years. The journey is not over. There is still plenty of musing and marveling to do. But for now, I have come to a place of pause and reflection. As 2023 rolls to its close, I am considering taking a step of faith to put this into a book to be shared with those I love, and those who love (or will love) Jesus! All along, it has been about using God given stories and random analogies to encourage and inspire, as together we let life point us to our life-giver, Jesus! And that is my prayer for each of you dear readers...that you may be encouraged, each day, to continue on in this Christ-following journey. Look to Him! Shine for Him! Love Him! Share Him! It is what we are called to do! For this life is all about serving our Lord and bringing others to the Father's throne of mercy and grace, that place where we all find hope, purpose and peace. And to each of our precious grand-c...
