Dear Jesus, Dear Husband...



Dear Jesus,

Our culture made today the official 'love' day.  It's a day where we are supposed to tell/show our 'significant other' how much we love them - through a box of chocolates, a heart balloon or a candlelit dinner date.

I have been thinking, these past few days, how I don't have someone special to do all those romantic things with.  Sometimes I feel lonely, while seeing some of my friends with their boyfriend/girlfriend(s).

But, Jesus, I stopped and realized something...

YOU are the best Valentine's I could ever have...

And I have had you since before the foundation of the world.

I can't give you a box of chocolates...a heart balloon...or go out to dinner with you.

But I can give you something that I have never - and will never - give to anyone else.

My life.

In your Word, you tell us that the greatest love a man can show is to lay down his life for his friend.

What better place to put my life, than in the hands of the One who gave His life for me?

I love you, Jesus.  
Here is my life...
my heart...
my love...
 
~Your Daughter

Dear Hubby,

I may not know who you are.
I don't know if I have already met you or not.

Today is Valentine's Day...
I wish I knew who you were so I could give you something...special.

But until I do, just remember that I pray for you every day.
And the LORD is preparing me, daily, to be the kind of woman you need.

 Happy Valentine's, love.

With all my heart...
I love you.

PS: just so you know, you always, ALWAYS encourage me so much. The Lord uses you through this blog, girl, in more ways than you may know! I'm so grateful that I jumped into the blogger world, if only because it introduced me to my beautiful sisters in Christ, you being one of them! :)
Thank you for being an encouragement. :)
