February 13th
Did you wake up thinking about V-Day? ....which is tomorrow.
As I woke up this morning I was thinking about I John 4:18
"There is no fear in love; but perfect love drives out fear...
the one who fears is not perfected in love."
I was also thinking about a Larry Crabb quote regarding encouragement:
When the motivation is love and the target is fear,
the words will be encouraging.
So, as you think about what you want to give your beloved for V-day...think about some true encouragement. The Spirit of the Lord lives in you; therefore, perfect love lives in you and can be your motivation. Target the fear of your spouse, kids, parents, friends...and speak an encouraging word straight to their heart. What could be better?...it has zero fat, zero calories, gives lots of energy, and can be used over and over and over again and never goes out of date.
