Our First Love
“Oh, love the LORD, all you His saints! For the LORD preserves the faithful….Be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart, all you who hope in the LORD.” Psalm 31:23 & 24
“Oh, to love the LORD”…What an awesome privilege we have as Christians! Today, Valentine's Day is being celebrated. A day set aside to show those that are dear to us how much they are loved and appreciated. However, let us not forget about our first love (Rev. 2:4) Remember how He is forever faithful and true, and how in the times when we think we can take no more, nor go any further, He strengthens our hearts and gives us the courage to carry on. Why? Because we have chosen to hope in Him. So, today, while plans are being made for special dinners and surprises, why not also make plans to let God know how much we love and appreciate Him. How can we do this? A good place to start is by calling upon the LORD, for He is worthy to be praised. Glorify, magnify and bless His name at every given opportunity. And who can forget the easiest but perhaps most endearing way of all...
“LORD, I love you.”
