Today’s message:
“All she had was a broken heart”
By Bob Perks
…
She walked into the room and his eyes lit
up. She didn’t have to say a word, her
being there was proof enough that she loved
him. They had both lost someone they loved.
So this day of all days was a difficult one.
She wanted to make this work. She was hurt,
lonely and afraid. It wasn’t supposed to be
this way.
…
But the fact was he knew how she felt. There
was an obvious pain in his heart, too. So the
one thing that strengthened their love for each
other was heartache, the most sorrowful kind.

A Valentine may play a love song for you,
but God sings you the sweetest love song in the universe.
The Lord your God…will rejoice over you with gladness. He will keep you quiet with his love. He will rejoice over you with singing.
Zephaniah 3:17
…
A Valentine may give you flowers,
but God sent you the most beautiful rose of all, Jesus.
I am the rose of Sharon, and the lily of the valley.
Song of Solomon 2:1

“Touch the World One Person at a Time”

Got Friends?

“And so I am giving a new commandment to you now — love each other just as much as I love you. Your strong love for each other will prove to the world that you are my disciples.” John 13:34-35
…
We all need friends. In fact, we were created to need each other. In his book, “The Broken Heart”, Dr. James J. Lynch shows that lonely people live significantly shorter lives than the general population. Yes, there are different levels of friendships, friends we see occasionally and friends with whom we share everything. There are even different seasons of friendships. But at the core of every healthy friendship is a giving heart.

“It’s LOVE that make the world go ’round . . . !”
* * *
Don’t just pretend that you love others. Really love them. Hate what is wrong. Stand on the side of good. Love each other with genuine affection and take delight in honoring each other (Romans 12:9-10 NLV).

Take the Pressure Off Valentine’s Day
Whitney Von Lake Hopler
…
Gazing at bright orange and pink colors streaking across a deepening blue sky at sunset, my husband and I held hands atop a platform on the Eiffel Tower. I thought of the thousands of miles we’d traveled and all the money we’d saved to make this trip to Paris for our 10th wedding anniversary. We’d set the stage for the most romantic evening possible … yet we still ended up with a disappointing experience.
