Let God's Love Rule

Preparing for a day
Which we give a heart
Filled with candy
And cards of cheer
Maybe even roses
And glasses filled
With red wine
As some dine
Exchanging love
Through several expressions...
Confusing what?
What with where?
Where with when?
When with who?
And who with why?
Why?
I don't know!
Because we don't know
Or is it we do what we are taught...
Love is love?
Love comes from above
Love is dying for what you believe in
As did St. Valentine
On this day so far back in history...
But before then...
Was a man in the flesh
But within Him
A love that shined wherever He went
And this love spread worldwide
Upon a cross for us all...
Which with His blood
That dripped from off His body
Shed light,  shed mercy,  shed grace, 
Shed love for all life...
And through His death
And then His resurrection...
The greatest love story ever...
Gave us all a way to reach the gates
Of which all our souls do desire...
To eternally live in heaven...
Until that given day...
The greatest of all love
Keeps us safe,  keeps us alive,  and
Keeps us connected to our Father,
Our Father,  who arts in heaven...
Happy Valentine's Day to each of you,
Remembering St.  Valentine...
But above all accepting,  living,  and loving
This eternal love given to us
Through Yeshua,  from God.
Amen
