HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!!  I have heard many people saying they hate Valentines Day.  I think many people assume this day is for dating or married couples but I think differently.  I mean don't get me wrong me and my husband did exchange gifts this year but Valentines day is not just about loving my spouse.  

I love to reflect on how much JESUS loves me and how much I pray my love for him would continue to increase!  I like to think about the blessings he has given me great family and friends and show or tell them my love for them.  The greatest commandment that Jesus gave us is to love our neighbors as ourself.  :)  WE MUST BE LOVING!  So on this LOVE holiday who do you need to show love to?  Who should you call and tell that you are thankful for their friendship and you love them?  

Take some time and reflect on the LOVE JESUS has for you and how he has changed your life.  If you are reading this and wondering what I am talking about send me a message because I would love to share with you about the love JESUS has for you too!  

Well, HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!  I pray a special blessing on all my family, friends, and blog followers!

Raise your hand if you agree....mine is up :) sorry i'm around kids all the time that sometimes rubs off.lol I was going to stop by and say happy valentines day that I wanted to spread some love to my favorite people but you beat me to the punch by already catching me. Any hoo, thanks for hanging out w/ me as often as you do and your post said it so very well! I find myself saying at least 25 times a day..."I love you Lord you are my strength" I never want to forget my first love...it took me years to understand His love to, even to find it and accept it, and to walk in it daily! I wish you a day filled w/ lotsa love which leads to hope and joy!

I was reading a Joyce Meyer book (I think it was her) and it was 'talking' about the same thing. What if we focused on approaching everything with love? How different would all of our interactions be. Everyday could be "Valentine's Day".

Great post.

I think I like this verse much better:

‎"To love Him with all your heart, with all your understanding, and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices." -- Mark 12:33

Happy Valentines day!

I agree... I've read several blogs today that said, "I hate Valentine's Day." I think that's sad. I can understand the dislike of the commercialism, but LOVE is what life's about... our love for God, and for each other, since we are His creations. This day is a great reminder of that.
HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!

Found your blog via the blog hop and was delighted to see your godly perspective and encouragement this day. God is so good, and all love stems from him and his selfless gift on the cross.

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
Description: The first book in  The Reading Game  learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender.  It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long.  It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program. Each of The Reading Game's six stories is told using just thirty new words.  These are broken down into six sets of five words.  The student learns to read each set of five words by playing a simple word matching game.  Frequent exposure through play hard wires these words into long-term memory.  Rote learning is transformed into a fast-paced game with a winner every few seconds. After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not).  Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

Packing for your first ski trip

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
Pexels - CCO Licence So, you're gearing up for your first ski trip and the excitement is as thick as the snow you're about to conquer. But before you can show off those freshly learned pizza and French fry stops, you’ve got to pack.  Packing for a ski trip can feel like preparing for a chilly expedition to the North Pole, but fear not! With these nifty tips, you'll be ready to hit the slopes in style and comfort. 1. Layer Like a Lasagna Think of your ski outfit as a gourmet lasagna: each layer is crucial. Start with a moisture-wicking base layer (yes, that includes thermal underwear) to keep you dry and snug. Over that, layer a warm and breathable mid-layer—think fleece or a wool sweater that can handle the chill. Top it all off with a waterproof and windproof jacket and pants. Remember, it's all about layers that you can add or peel off because sweating while you ski is less fun than a snowball in the face. 2. Keep Those Fingers Cosy Cold hands can ruin a...
