Words & Whispers

I hear the Lord say:

On Valentine’s Day, people share tokens of their love with flowers, candy and gifts. Romance is celebrated with candlelight dinners and music. But I have a love for you that transcends human love. Although you love your family and friends deeply, the love I have for you is agape love. This love is greater and deeper and wider than human love. Agape love is sacrificial love, unconditional love and never-ending love. The best love story you can read is found in the Bible. The Old and New Testaments chronicle My love for My beloved children. A jealous love, a consuming love, a doting love, a joyful love; I rejoice over you with singing. My greatest gift to you is My Son, Jesus, who offered Himself up on a cross, Who conquered sin and death, and Who rose again in glory and victory. This gift is given to you with open arms; this gift of life, freedom, victory and power. On this day and every day, celebrate this gift of agape love with a grateful heart and a humble spirit. Your soul will be satisfied as you take and embrace this pure form of My love.

For the Lord your God is living among you. He is a mighty savior. He will take delight in you with gladness. With his love, he will calm all your fears. He will rejoice over you with joyful songs.        Zephaniah 3:17 NLT
