So today is Valentines Day - or as I saw on Facebook - Singles Awareness Day. Whether your dating, married, single, divorced, young or old, don't let today define you. Your value is not equivalent to your relational status. You are special, loved, valued, treasured, cared for:
No matter what that person said about you...
No matter what you've thought about yourself...
No matter how you've been treated...
No matter how you might feel...
No matter what has happened in the past...
No matter what...
God loves you. He always has. He always will. His love is unconditional & unending.
God loves you enough that He gave His son who gave His life because of His great love for us.
Why? So our relationships could be restored.
The God of all things wants to be connected with you.
You are valuable, treasured, loved.
Today might be a hard day. You might not always FEEL God's love, but don't let your relationship status define you. See yourself through the eyes of the one who created you.
I shared some thoughts from Romans 8 on Sunday. Here they are again:
Christ Jesus who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword?
No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
