Valentine's Day

Happy Valentines Day to everyone out there!

Do you know what valentines day is all about?
Im sure most people have heard about the story of Saint Valentine!
Well if you have not, Im sure you would be able to find that story on google.
Im am not going to talk about the story in this post.

Does anybody know the true meaning of valentines day?
You see, valentines day is not just a day of giving gifts to someone you love.
You can do it on any other days can you not?
Valentines day is a day of love.
It doesnt mean that you should only love the most on this day.
No it doesnt. Love should be given unconditionally everyday of your life.
This day 14th February is a day of remembrance.
It reminds us of those people who are ever so close to us.
Those whom may have been closed to us in the past.
Those whom may have passed on to God's kingdom.
And not forgetting those who are still beside us.

"Love is not how long you've been together.
Its not how much you've given or received.
Its not how many times you've helped each other out.
Nor is it based on feelings alone.
It is a decision we have to keep making everyday regardless of how we feel.
Love is about how you value each other."

Dear Lord,

On this day of love, we thank you for the loved ones we have,
who are always constantly supporting us and loving us.
We thank you for keeping us together in a relationship
and ask that you teach us to keep this relationship ever loving and growing.
Teach us to love unconditionally and to never take each other for granted.
Help us to not only love the people we know but to spread your love to everyone.
This we ask in your most precious name.

Amen
