Valentine’s Day: Experiencing Holidays With JesusSample

Valentines Day...the day of love!

Many believe it’s a day exclusively for couples, but that is definitely not true.

Valentine’s Day is a day of LOVE and can be celebrated between couples, families, church families, and friends...and my absolute favorite Valentine to celebrate with: Jesus! It’s a day to celebrate anyone you love.

I absolutely love holidays! All of them! There’s so much meaning, special memories, and spiritual growth opportunities with each holiday the year has to offer. 

The next few days, I hope to bring fresh ideas, hope, love, and encouragement to ALL who read this special Valentine’s Day reading plan, as we focus on loving others – especially Jesus – to the best of our ability.

Activity: Go on a special coffee or dessert date with just Jesus! You can go to your favorite coffee shop or bakery, or you can stay home and enjoy some coffee or tea...or pick up a pint of your favorite ice cream and snuggle up to Jesus as you share your heart with Him today.

Prayer: “Jesus, we love You so very much! There are couples who are vibrantly in love, as well as other couples who may be experiencing relationship conflict, separation, adultery, or divorce. There are also singles who are feeling extra lonely this time of year. Lord, we pray for each person and give their life situation to You. Bless marriages everywhere...and deeply comfort those who feel unloved, rejected, hurt, unimportant, empty, or neglected. Please grant Your hope and extravagant love to those who feel all alone. We thank You that no matter what we experience in life, YOU are the Ultimate Valentine! What a TREASURE You are!! Thank You for Your extravagant love, care, and encouragement! We are forever grateful to You! Please strengthen, heal, and bless individuals, families, church families, and marriages everywhere! In Your precious name we pray, Amen.”
