HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!!  I have heard many people saying they hate Valentines Day.  I think many people assume this day is for dating or married couples but I think differently.  I mean don't get me wrong me and my husband did exchange gifts this year but Valentines day is not just about loving my spouse.  

I love to reflect on how much JESUS loves me and how much I pray my love for him would continue to increase!  I like to think about the blessings he has given me great family and friends and show or tell them my love for them.  The greatest commandment that Jesus gave us is to love our neighbors as ourself.  :)  WE MUST BE LOVING!  So on this LOVE holiday who do you need to show love to?  Who should you call and tell that you are thankful for their friendship and you love them?  

Take some time and reflect on the LOVE JESUS has for you and how he has changed your life.  If you are reading this and wondering what I am talking about send me a message because I would love to share with you about the love JESUS has for you too!  

Well, HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!  I pray a special blessing on all my family, friends, and blog followers!

Raise your hand if you agree....mine is up :) sorry i'm around kids all the time that sometimes rubs off.lol I was going to stop by and say happy valentines day that I wanted to spread some love to my favorite people but you beat me to the punch by already catching me. Any hoo, thanks for hanging out w/ me as often as you do and your post said it so very well! I find myself saying at least 25 times a day..."I love you Lord you are my strength" I never want to forget my first love...it took me years to understand His love to, even to find it and accept it, and to walk in it daily! I wish you a day filled w/ lotsa love which leads to hope and joy!

I was reading a Joyce Meyer book (I think it was her) and it was 'talking' about the same thing. What if we focused on approaching everything with love? How different would all of our interactions be. Everyday could be "Valentine's Day".

Great post.

I think I like this verse much better:

‎"To love Him with all your heart, with all your understanding, and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices." -- Mark 12:33

Happy Valentines day!

I agree... I've read several blogs today that said, "I hate Valentine's Day." I think that's sad. I can understand the dislike of the commercialism, but LOVE is what life's about... our love for God, and for each other, since we are His creations. This day is a great reminder of that.
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!

Found your blog via the blog hop and was delighted to see your godly perspective and encouragement this day. God is so good, and all love stems from him and his selfless gift on the cross.

Common Mistakes Made When Writing a Will

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
  Writing a will should, by all means, be a simple thing. You want to make sure that your assets are being left to your loved ones and that your final wishes are being fulfilled. Usually, they are rather straightforward, but that doesn’t mean that they are entirely foolproof. Here, we’re going to look at some common issues that can lead to disputes or delays in carrying out your will. Image - CC0 License Not Having It Witnessed Correctly One of the most common mistakes when writing a will is not having it witnessed correctly. Wills generally require the signatures of at least two witnesses who are not beneficiaries or spouses of beneficiaries. If the will is not witnessed in accordance with legal requirements, it may be declared invalid, meaning your estate would be distributed according to intestacy laws, which may not align with your wishes. It’s important to follow the witnessing procedures exactly as outlined in your jurisdiction to ensure the will is legally enforceable. Chan...

Win some Sweet Andy's Cookies

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
A big thank you to Andy who sent me some amazing cookies to try to conduct my review.  :)  All opinions expressed are 100 % mine and I was not paid for this review.   About Sweet Andy's Cookies: The “Thank You” Cookie In 2009, Andrew (Sweet Andy) found himself in a position like so many others at that time in our past; the economy was quickly spiraling downward and he had left his job in the financial services industry. Although Andy had an MBA in Banking and Finance and had even written a book entitled, “A Guide to Taking Control of Your Investments”, he found himself to be disenchanted with the financial industry and left to pursue “other work.”  The “other work” that Andrew pursued was with the Church and did not provide financial support for the family.  During this time Andy and his wife, Lissa, struggled to find other forms of income. They did what they could for themselves and their five children but often it was not enough. But there were...
