"Love doesn't make the world go 'round. Love is what makes the ride worthwhile."
Franklin P. Jones
"So, no matter what I say, what I believe, and what I do,
I'm bankrupt without love.
I'm bankrupt without love.
Love never gives up.
Love cares more for others than for self.
Love doesn't want what it doesn't have.
Love doesn't strut,
Doesn't have a swelled head,
Doesn't force itself on others,
Isn't always "me first,"
Doesn't fly off the handle,
Doesn't keep score of the sins of others,
Doesn't revel when others grovel,
Takes pleasure in the flowering of truth,
Puts up with anything,
Trusts God always,
Always looks for the best,
Never looks back,
But keeps going to the end.
Love never dies."
1 Corinthians 13:4-8

The Message
WOW . . . after reading this scripture I realize that LOVE is harder than I thought. Yet isn't it amazing that God loves each of us this way - everyday - no matter what! I am so thankful for God's love.
And today especially my heart is so grateful for
wet sloppy kisses
hand-made Valentine's Day cards
boxes of chocolates
bear hugs
heart cookies
sweet little voices saying "I Love You, Momma"
5 beautiful children
and a husband that I love more everyday.
Happy Valentine's Day to all of you!
May your day be filled with hugs, kisses, and lots of LOVE!
