As we head into “The Weekend of Love” ending with Valentine’s Day on Monday.. I thought I would reflect a bit on love.
According to an article I googled:
“Below is an approximate list of the number of times love appears in different popular translations of the Bible:
English Standard Version: 684
King James Version: 442
New American Standard Bible: 479
New Living Translation: 759
New International Version: 686
The Message: 611”
Believe it or not, this article says it is not the most used word in the Bible, but it’s up there!!
How much do you LOVE in any given day?? How many different ways?? I am currently sitting at First Watch loving my Purple Haze lavender, lemon, PeaFlower tea; I love that it’s 60 degrees and the sun is shining; I got to see my precious girls last night whom I love more than life!!
At the end of a very hard week in our community, I would ask for us all to evaluate what the loves are in our lives, and do all we can to nurture and protect these loves, so that the love will thrive and grow!! All too often, the things we love take a backseat to ambition, success, just plain business!! Let’s use this weekend to evaluate and maybe reset priorities!! Make our LOVES first in our lives, top priority and make them matter!!
I wish you a blessed weekend full of LOVE!!
