Love is in the air

Love is in the air, but Valentine's Day should not be the only time to express love for your partner or loved ones, rather it should serve as a reminder to devote time and energy to your relationship everyday.
A song made famous in 1975 by the Wynners group express love as ...

L-O-V-E, love...
La La La ... love...
I will not give you riches
Riches are not my wishes
I'll give you the vow of my life
L-O-V-E Love La...

L is for life and living
O is the oath of giving
V and E, vow of eternity
L-O-V-E Love La...

Though the word may be simple
Yet the feeling is true and deep
Here's a pledge for you to keep
My true love L-O-V-E

I'll make your life worth living
I'll take and I'll be giving
Please take my vow of eternity
L-O-V-E Love

BUT the greatest Love is found in the Book of John Chapter 3 verses 16 & 17 "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.
In 1 Corinthians Chapter 13 - Love is described as ... patient, kind, does not envy, does not boast, is not proud, is not rude, is not self-seeking, is not easily angered and keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes and always perseveres.
So remember to put your trust in Jesus, for God's love is a fabric that never fades, no matter how often it is washed in the water of adversity.
