So Far, It's A Solid "Maybe"

Yesterday, Brad gave me a really sweet note telling me things he loves about me and why I am his Valentine and on the back of it was one of those "Will You Be My Valentine? if so, check the box for yes, no, or maybe" questions :P....I saw this one and had to laugh....


LOVE THAT!  I gave him a solid "maybe" (because I am buying time to figure out how to give him the best YES :)  But, that got me thinking about how real love requires a decision moment and then an action that lasts of...."forsaking all others".  Before I decided to write the "Love Is" blogs I had posted one with a picture of the verses from the love chapter and I had said something about how I believe it is that love never fails.  I still think that is because love never stops trying...but, it's not just flippant attempts,  LOVE PUTS EVERYTHING ON THE LINE.

I know Valentines Day is hard for a lot of people.  So much of the commercialism and cultural definition of it makes us feel like we should be in a relationship to celebrate it or, if we are in a relationship, there is pressure to evaluate it on (what my girls call) "The Love-O-Meter" for passion and romance :) I just know this day has made me feel lonely and unworthy of love in the past. However, I would encourage you to take a fresh look at the One who put everything on the line for you.  Through that lens you will see, in clarity, a love that cuts through all the grey.

His Love Never Fails!

Happy Valentine's Day to You!


And, if you are still stuck at "maybe".....I pray you'll say, "YES!"
