Valentine's Day used to be a HUGE source of frustration for my husband & I...I wanted all the pomp and circumstance and he was just like, "well, you know I love you!". <BR/><BR/>Needless to say it only took us about 8 years to figure out that neither one of us was happy about the "expectations" and we decided to drop it all and just celebrate the fact that we loved each other and that was more than enough!Melissa in Mel's Worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13638983411456998183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636139298576673779.post-7711405553722071502008-02-14T20:40:00.000-05:002008-02-14T20:40:00.000-05:00so true, thanks for reminding us :)so true, thanks for reminding us :)Paulahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16054187209428838640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636139298576673779.post-4987812303291138022008-02-14T20:38:00.000-05:002008-02-14T20:38:00.000-05:00Amen.

As we were eating a little snack before bedtime, I began fiddling with my wedding ring-only to notice that the diamond was gone! My heart sank. I felt like the breath had been knocked out of me. Sadly, it was gone. More than likely, being swept up by the school custodian. I've felt so "out of sorts" that past few weeks. Well,this morning, my husband gathered my two seventeen year olds into the living room before school and handed me a beautifully wrapped little package. Lo and behold, he had a new diamond-a brilliant, very beautiful diamond (much bigger than the first)set on my wedding ring. My heart was overflowing. All I could think was, "Isn't this just like God? Blessing us way beyond what we could think or say?" I truly expected my husband to replace my diamond......but never in a million years could I have guessed it would have been such a magnificent diamond. Let's all be encouraged today that GOD loves us more than we can think or imagine. And, one day, we will meet Him in heaven and it will be magnificent. ENJOY GOD'S LOVE TODAY. It is far greater than what HALLMARK has to offer!

I have a problem with the commerical side of Valentines Day but it's so easy to get sucked into it when the girls at the office get flowers. However, they get it once a year, I am fortunate enough to get presents on a regular basis, just because.... now that's better!<BR/>But Jesus' love is the best because it's unconditional!Masked Rabbithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11258913798868136384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1636139298576673779.post-52258605513483946452008-02-14T13:47:00.000-05:002008-02-14T13:47:00.000-05:00Oh, how sweet His love is!

We thank God on this day that He would see fit to bring us together (unbelievers at the time), rescue us from our wretched selves (on the same day, no less!), grow us up in Him, and then send us to the mission field!
