Yes, girls, I still remember almost 60 years ago what a special and wonderful night it was when sweet Papa asked me to be his Forever Valentine!!! Like the old song says -- "Love is a Many Splendored Thing", and like God's Word says -- "Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it."
In this sad day when many people substitute Lust for Love, may we who know the Author of love show to the world how God defines it in the 13th chapter of I Corinthians.
I have read how the male Emperor Penguin demonstrates genuine love by standing almost motionless for over two months in below zero temperatures to provide the warmth necessary to incubate a single egg. During the nesting sequence, he goes up to 120 days without eating.
Amy Carmichael once said: "You can give without loving, but you cannot love without giving."
And on this Valentine's Eve, let us all remember that if we want to have happy marriages, happy homes, and happy relationships with our fellowman, we must remember that: "Genuine love is giving without any expectation of personal gain."
God's Holy Word says -- "By this shall all men know that ye are My disciples, if ye have love one to another."
--God bless you, and Best Wishes for a very happy Valentine's Day!!!
