Valentines day really is such a made up holiday. A day so that retailers can get people to spend more money that they dont have on things that they dont really need. I mean Im not trying to be a party pooper or anything but really?!?!? Is it necessary for there to be a day devoted to loving people? Shouldnt we love people everyday? I mean honestly shouldnt you tell people you love them more than just one time a year, or even more than just a few times a year?
Even the fact that in any kind of groups relationships, dating, love and sex are emphasized the week before Valentines day; if you want to talk about it then do it. It doesnt have to be just around Valentines day that that stuff is talked about. Such ridiculousness if you ask me. And yea maybe you didnt exactly ask me but you are reading my blog arent you?
However recently I was in a worship service and we were singing the song love song. These are the lyrics...
Where can I go
Where can I run from You
You're everywhere
You know all my thoughts
You see through my ways
And still You come to me
And so I sing a love song to You
And so I sing a love song to You
From Heaven above
Earth down beneath
Your love rains down on me
You know all my thoughts
You see through my skin
And still You come to me
And so I sing a love song to You
And so I sing a love song to You
You walk on waves
You run with clouds
You paint the sky for me to see
Your majesty
Your majesty is why I sing
And this is a love song for You
And this is a love song for You
And this is a love song for You
And this is a love song for You
You walk on waves
You run with clouds
You paint the sky for me to see
Your majesty
Your majesty is why I sing
Yes it's all for You
In my life a love song to You
In my life a love song to You
Everything I do
In my life a love song to You
In my life a love song to You
In my life a love song to You
While I was singing that song I realized that if my life is supposed to be a love song to my God, my Heavenly Father, and my creator; that it better be good. I dont want the song of my life to be a nasty sound to the ears of my creator; I want it to be such a sweet and beautiful sound to His ears. I think that Psalm 139 describes the love that He has for us perfectly.
So as much as Valentines day may be a ridiculous holiday; embrace it; but not for any reason other than to love on your creator. But dont just make it a once a year kind of thing, make it an every day occurrence. Ladies you dont need the love of a man, whether we are talking about a father, a brother, a boyfriend, or a husband; because the love of your creator is better and it is enough. And men; you dont need the love of a mother, a sister, a girlfriend, or a wife because the love of your creator is enough. He wants to lavish His love on you but dont forget to lavish your love on Him in return.
