My Valentine ♥ ♥

My valentine: Tall(taller than some shorter than others), dark, and handsome and he has the biggest brownest eyes that would melt the coldest of hearts ♥! ;) It doesn’t bother  me one bit that he is missing a few teeth and 1 foot shorter than me!! ;) Okay, so I just described my 7 year old brother. :) I guess I should title this post “My Valentines” as I am surrounded by half a dozen little crazy kids that showered me with love this morning and do so every morning. :) Whether it is a hug from Emmi, Bekah cracking her eyes smiling at me stating “It’s good I woke up so early” in the most joyful tone I have ever heard at 7:15am, or a sweet heart sucker from Ruth, I know I am loved. :) Not just on Valentine’s day but every day. Whether you are a mother, sister, brother, aunt, uncle, etc. children are a blessing, it is true! The Lord can use them to make the “gloomiest” day bright by a funny face, cute giggles,  or just a smile. I can truly say, “my cup runneth over.”(Psalm 23:5) :) And if all theses blessings were taken away from me or if trials come, my cup still overflows. Why? Because, “God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” God has blessed me! May this day & every day hereafter be filled to overflowing with the love of God for you!

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”
John 3:16

P.S. If your a young lady finding yourself very single today. Buy yourself a box of chocolates and know that you are loved(Galatians 2:20)! ;)

Joel!

“Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

Love never fails.”

1 Cor 13
