John 15:13

How beautifully perfect is it that this Valentine’s Day falls on Ash Wednesday. For as we celebrate a day of love, reflection, and repentance, we are reminded of the sacrificial love of Jesus. The best Valentine we could ever receive! So as we celebrate love in its various forms, may we remember the depth of Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross. How He willingly shed His precious blood. And laid down His life for ours, as the ultimate example of selflessness and devotion. From hearts overflowing with gratitude, I pray we in turn be inspired to emulate His love not only today, but every day of the year. Being the first to extend love, kindness, and compassion to all those around us, just as Jesus did for us. May the love we share on Valentine’s Day and the repentance we seek on Ash Wednesday, reflect the transformative power of Christ’s love not just on one day, but throughout the year. Shining brightly as a beacon of hope and grace in a world in need of the redemptive love of Jesus.

Revelation 2:4-5

As Valentine’s Day approaches, love is in the air. And as we celebrate those we cherish, we mustn’t forget our first and greatest love of all, Jesus. The church at Ephesus had lost their passion and devotion for the Lord. And so He called them to reignite the flame that once burned brightly in their hearts. Jesus’ words are an invitation for us all to realign our priorities and renew our commitment to Him. It’s a call to reflect on our spiritual journey and examine whether our love for God has been put on the back burner from the distractions and busyness of life. Returning to our first love requires intentional effort and a desire to prioritize our relationship with Jesus above all else. As we heed His call to repentance and restoration, we open our hearts to experience a revitalized intimacy with our Savior. So as Valentine’s Day encourages us to express love and affection towards others, may it also be an opportunity to rekindle our love for God and renewing our commitment to Him.
