As Valentine's Day approaches this week, my thoughts have been focused on love and how it exists in every aspect of life. God is love and without Him we would never get to experience this incredible emotion and all its dimensions. God created love, He IS love, He sacrificed His love, He designed His children to feel His love, and He gave His children His Spirit for our hearts to be drawn to Him in love. There is no love apart from God.
Today this song was sung so beautifully and the lyrics penetrated my heart as I listened to the powerful words explaining love of the greatest proportion hanging on a tree for me; so that I may spend eternity in the Presence of the God who created me and created love. "How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are!" ~1 John 3:1
As you concentrate on love this week and all the different relationships in which it exists, remember that you are the greatest love of Christ. You are Christ's valentine. His selfless love for you is God's greatest masterpiece. Christ lovingly laid down His life for you.....surrender your life to Him and experience True Love.
On the cross with blood you painted, Your Masterpiece
Selfless love hanging on a tree, for me
Your out stretched arms a portrait, for all to see
Selfless love hanging on a tree, for me
Your Masterpiece--Ashmont Hill
