Valentine's Day

Hey guys! Welcome to my blog! I hope that over the next few weeks you are able to find encouragement in the posts on here and they bring a smile to your face. I figured I would start things off right, with a Scripture that I hope will make you smile.

As we all know Valentine's Day is just around the corner. On Friday all the couples will get together and have cute dates with their significant other. That is just great for those people who are dating, but for those of us who aren't, well Valentines Day is another story. It reminds us that we do not have a boyfriend and oftentimes it makes us feel unwanted 
or unloved. 

The truth about this holiday is that it isn't all about couples and their love for each other. It is about friends and family and being with the people most important in your life. It doesn't matter if you aren't able to spend the day with a member of the opposite sex.

Even if you feel you need to be with somebody to be happy, the fact that Jesus loves us more than anybody else in the world ever could, should make you smile. No matter how many times you disappoint Him, He is not going to give up. It hurts God when we say we feel unloved because He will never leave us and is the only person we can completely trust with our entire lives.

I came across this picture the other day and when I saw it, I had to pause for a second as I thought about how true it was. It brought such a huge smile to my face and I hope it does the same for you.

I don't know about you, but I will be spending my Valentine's Day thanking the Lord for all that He has blessed me with in my life, and I hope you will do the same. 

Have a great week!
