Love is...... Love is a Verb Day 14

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!! Truth be told, my man and I generally don't do a lot for V-Day. But this year has been a little different. He took me to lunch on Saturday (and bought a new blender ~~ yay!!) and then yesterday he ran at the Battlefield and then called me when he was almost back to where I sat (at a picnic table in the snowy sunshine doing my Beth Moore study....pure bliss) and then had me meet him so I could walk a little. SO GREAT!!

And then this morning......

When he kissed me goodbye he whispered in my ear, "Happy Valentine's Day!! I Love You!!!" He made me feel SO special. I know it is such a little thing, but isn't love in the details?

I also get My Mr. Winslow a card for V-Day, or make him one, and this year I decided to make it. I'm not into spending $5.00 on a card, and since I'm a scrapbooker I always have LOTS of supplies lying around, and I have fun projects going this year, so right now I have extra fun things in the stash, so yep, a homemade card it shall be....

Patient.....Help me Lord to want things in YOUR time, and not my own.....



Kind.....Father, may my kindness show from the Holy Spirit's residence in my heart.....



Does NOT Envy.....Jesus, help me to be satisfied with what I have and not want someone else's Blessing.....



It Does NOT Boast.....May I only boast in the Cross of Christ.....


It is NOT Proud....Oh Father, help me on this one for sure......NO PRIDE!!!


It Does NOT Dishonor Others.....Let me be a person who loves others.......


It is NOT Self-Seeking......Let me Seek YOUR Kingdom FIRST and YOUR Righteousness.....


It is NOT Easily Angered.....Help me keep a cool head about me.....


It Keeps NO Record of Wrong......Father, NO checklists of what others have done to me.....


Love Does Not Delight in Evil.....Never let me delight in evil Father, please always convict my heart........... Keep that check in my Spirit ALWAYS.....


But Rejoices in the Truth......Let it be LORD, that I will ALWAYS be a girl that REJOICES in YOUR TRUTH!!!.....

It ALWAYS Protects.....ALWAYS Trusts.....ALWAYS Hopes..... & ALWAYS Perseveres.....
Father, help me to ALWAYS IN LOVE Protect the ones dearest to me and the ones dearest to YOU Father (You want ALL to come to Salvation!!), Please may I ALWAYS Trust, because that is what LOVE does..... May I ALWAYS Hope in YOU, Jesus, and Oh Lord Jesus, Help me to ALWAYS Persevere, even especially when it is hard, and help me to do so with LOVE and not complaint.....


LOVE NEVER FAILS.....


And that my friends, is real love, TRUE LOVE!!! LOVE NEVER FAILS!!

1 John 4:10 (NIV)
" This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins."
