Valentines Day...2012

What Love looks like...


In the beginning it looked like fun - Sweet, new a blessing and a gift!


It was free and exciting as we planned our life together.

Love grew - Full of surprises, challenges - children - it multiplied!
Challenges can break you - and they can make you stronger.
When it is done God's way - it can last:



"Love is patient . . . . . "


"Love is kind."
"It does not envy or boast, it is not arrogant or rude . . . . ."


"It does not insist on it's own way; it is not irritable or resentful ,
it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth . . . . ."


"Love bears all things, believes all things
hopes all things, endures all things . . . . . "


"Love never ends."
I Corinthians 13: 4-8


Sometimes love looks like piles of laundry - more dishes - another trip to the store.
It can be flowers and sunshine



Love can be cooking and cleaning. There is always so much more.
It means work every day - not forgetting to sing


Love looks like
Washing dirty faces - even scrubbing the floor
kissing every skinned elbow - dusting every shelf . . . .


Love is really very simple -It's Dying Daily to self !



Romans 5: 8
"But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us"

Love looks a little different now than it did when we began
Now it's richer, stronger, truer

Resting safe in the Masters hands!

Happy Love Day!
every day
