Valentine's day - it is all about LOVE!

There is a song about Jesus' love that is so wonderful:  

Jesus' love is very wonderful (3x)
Oh wonderful love!
It’s so high you can't get over it,
So low you can’t get under it,
So wide you can’t get round it,
Oh, oh wonderful love!!

May you experience with Valentine’s day that Jesus’ love is the BEST LOVE that you can dream of!!

Without the love of God in your life, your week will be like this:
Sunday will be a Sadday,
Monday will be a Moanday,
Tuesday will be a  Tearsday,
Wednesday will be a Wasteday,
Thursday will be a Thirstday,
Friday will be a Frightday,
Saturday will be a Shatterday.

A little story to illustrate love:    
Norman was a good boy. He helped with the washing up and looked after his
baby sister. He was a bright boy, too, and he noticed that when other people
did things around the house for his mother, they sent bills and got paid. For
example, after the plumber fixed the pipes he sent a bill for his work and his
mother wrote a cheque to pay him.
Norman began to think, Why shouldn’t I get paid too? So one morning Norman
laid a paper like this at his mother’s plate at breakfast time.
 He tried to make it look as much like the other bills he had seen. So he printed words like these:

Mother owes Norman
1.  For washing the dishes 5 times …….…..….……  R10.00
2.  For looking after baby sister ….……..….………    R10.00
3.  For going to the shop …………….…..…………      R10.50
4.  For being a good boy ……….……….………….      R10.50
Total ………………………......……………………            R41.00

Norman’s mother sat down at the table and read what Norman had written, but she didn’t even smile. She just laid it aside and ate her breakfast. When Norman came in for supper that night there was a bill on his plate! It read:

Norman owes mother
1. For 10 years of happy home ……………….                  nothing
2. For food and clothes for 10 years ………..                 nothing
3. For nursing through chicken pox, flu.and measles      nothing
4. For being good to him all his life ………..                     nothing
Total ………......……………………………..                           nothing

When Norman read it he felt bad! Big tears ran down his cheeks, his lips
quivered and he ran to his mother’s arms and cried, “Mum, I love you and I’ll
do all I can just because I love you. I don’t want any pay.”

What children say about love:    
"Love is when your puppy licks your face even after you left him alone all day."
"I know my older sister loves me because she gives me all her old clothes and has to go out and buy new ones." 
“If falling in love is anything like learning how to spell, I don't want to do it. It takes too long”. 
“Love is like an avalanche where you have to run for your life.”  
“I think you're supposed to get shot with an arrow or something, but the rest of it isn't supposed to be so painful.”  
“No one is sure why it happens, but I heard it has something to do with how you smell. That's why perfume and deodorant are so popular.”   
“Love is the most important thing in the world, but baseball is pretty good to”.  
“Once I'm done with kindergarten, I'm going to find me a wife.” 

“On the first date, they just tell each other lies, and that usually gets them interested enough to go for a second date.”
