THE DAY AFTER LOVE

Today is the day after Valentine’s Day. How quickly did kind, loving words stop in your home? When did an extra smile, a sweet kiss, or a thoughtful gesture fade? Why did you let love slip away?

There are many reasons to celebrate another day of blessings. For me, this is my sister’s birthday. I don’t tell her often enough that I love her, but I do. When I go to her house, it’s like going home.

Is there nothing or no one in your life to love? Bitterness never sweetened the jam; anger never brought flavor to the candy, and jealousy never loved anyone. Let this not be the day after Valentine’s Day, but the first day we choose love. Let us pray:

"God and Father of love, I bow before your blessed presence in our lives. I ask that true love may live within me that I may share it with others. Our world is confused about love right now, Father. May the love I share be understood as coming from you. Forgive me when I sow bitter seeds, for they can only harvest a sour plant. Let me share your sweet love wherever I go. In the name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen"
