The Plot of Valentine's Day

Good Morning!

I have a few things to say about Valentine's Day:

God is love and Cupid doesn't belong to Him. Cupid is to tomorrow what Santa Claus and the Easter bunny is to Christmas and Easter.

Commercialism says you have to set aside a day to "prove" or "show" your love..it's a ploy to trap you into spending.

Love is so much more than one day.....this actually disrespects real love, real love takes work and faithfulness.

Another issue with this day is that it flies in the face of people who aren't married or in a relationship. It says, "You're less than," when nothing is further from the truth. Walking as an individual is NOT a punishment...Good grief. Is that even godly? (Rhetorical)

This is not an admonition for you to stop doing what you are going to do because all of you are grown. Take some time and research...It is just food for thought and an opportunity for you all to see the commercialism for what it is.......

Note: Back when we acknowledged the holiday and before we married, I asked Terrey to not buy me flowers or any gifts that day.....I asked him to do those things when it came upon his heart to do so........and what do you know! My reward for that decision- I get better surprises ALL YEAR LONG!

Have a great day. Love y'all to life for life!!!!
