Today is Valentine's Day, which is the day of the year men can buy their wives flowers without apologizing for something stupid they did. Today is also a day where some singles feel left out because they think there are unlucky in love. Today is also the day, if you are dating, not to listen to a Taylor Swift song.
Today is also a day to reflect on the love of God. God has perfect love for sinners because it is a never-ending love. It is an unconditional love. It is a love that will never die in spite of us. The Bible tells us that God is a holy God that must punish sin because it violates his holiness yet He loves sinners enough to send a Savior to rescue sinners from their sin.
Meditate on these verse as you reflect on the love God has for you:
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life (John 3:16)
By this we know love, that he laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers (1 John 3:16)
God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us (Romans 5:8)
We love because he first loved us (1 John 4:19)
