One week from today the world will celebrate Valentines Day. Cupid will be the "reason" people buy flowers, candy, cards and take their "significant others" to romantic dinners and splurge, all in the name of love. In 2009 $14.9 billion was spent "celebrating". Legend says a priest (Father Valentine) married young couples against the wishes of the "rulers of his day" and was martyred on February 14. Amazing how far from the biblical love story of John 3:16 "God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not die but have everlasting life" the world has gone. They will take note of Christians because of our love for one another. Don't skimp on showing your loved ones how important they are next week but even better, show the world everyday God's amazing love by living out His love one person at a time!
