“The one who does not love does not know God, for God is love” (1 John 4:8).

“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life” (John 3:16).

“See how great a love the Father has bestowed on us, that we would be called children of God; and such we are” (1 John 3:1).

What Kind of love?

What kind of love is this? It’s the “agape” love of God. It’s a supernatural love, not superficial. Selfless, not selfish. Sacrificial, not stingy. Sincere, not shallow. It specializes in seeking God’s very best for others, not one that specializes in stripping people of their dignity by degrading them.

Supreme, not a sham

Supreme, not a sham. Special, not superfluous. It’s strong and steady, not shifty and shaky.

On this Valentine’s Day

On this Valentine’s Day, embrace the supernatural, selfless, sacrificial, supreme, special, strong and steady love of God and express it to others! God bless you.
