This is the month of love.
Valentine’s day soon will arrive and the time for hearts and flowers.
Showing sentiments to each other, I always told my husband to not give me stuff on that day, pick a different one.
When I am sad, or don’t feel good, or don’t expect it.
When I worked in a flower shop valentine’s day and Mother’s Day were the worst.
Busy and chaotic, so many rushing to pick something up.
I think most moms would just appreciate a had written card or note from the heart.
This is also a birthday month. Yesterday was my best friends 70th birthday.
Then the third is another friend’s birthday, then the 13th is our twin granddaughter’s birthday. They will be 19.
The 11th would have been my sister’s birthday, but she’s gone now.
The 22 would have been my mothers, but she is gone also.
It’s a busy month celebrating those we love and lost.
Jesus talked about the Love needed in 1st Corinthians chapter. 13
13 If I speak in the tongues[a] of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.
2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.
3 If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, [b] but do not have love, I gain nothing.
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love always wins.
This is the month of love, let us celebrate and rejoice in it.
