During Valentine’s Day, most people seem to feel romantic. Young and old, they feel the tingling sensation of love. They smile when love is mentioned. Somehow, they reminisce and cherish their own love life. While some news may not interest them, the mention of love makes the ears open.
Heart’s Day is one special occasion celebrated by Filipinos. It is said that Valentine cards come next to Christmas cards as far as sales is concerned. The message of the heart is expressed thru written words.
Love in the air seems to vanish as soon as February 14 passes. People go back to their own pace, and the mention of love, courtship, and marriage simply evaporate with the memory of the love day. All the hustle and bustle seem not to have transpired at all. The twinkling eyes and sweet talks fly away.
But there is one great Lover who never stops loving. To Him, everyday is a Heart Day. He always has endearing words, not the type that gives lies but sincere, deep love.
His Name is Jesus Christ. He showed His love by stretching His hand, and saying “I love you this much. If I were to take this road over and over again, I will do it for you even if you are the last person standing on earth.”
When He gave His life for us, He did not consider the cost but put highest premium to showing His love by reaching forth to those in darkness with His nail-pierced hand. It doesn’t how many needs love. His all-sufficient love is more than enough for everyone. His love is not time-bound. It does not look at the age. Status and achievements are not flattering to Him. Gold and silver cannot dare buy His incomparable love. A sinner who sincerely comes to Him, no matter how deep and scarlet his sins are, is accepted with open arms.
What then inspires Him to love? Nothing. Love is simply as He is because He is love. Love comes naturally from Him. No greater can ever compare to His love for everyone. He will not break your heart but will mend it with His love.
Looking for true love this valentine’s? Look no more. He is just a whisper away from you. Listen to Him saying to you, “I love you.” Dry your tears, and feel God’s embrace for you. That will strengthen you, Valentine’s Day or not. His heart, your home.
