Be His
Do you know that God created you as a unique, unrepeatable, special, wonderful person? Do you really know that?! You are one-of-a-kind. There was never before anyone just like you, and there won't ever be another you. You are one of a kind, and you are precious to your Heavenly Father in your special way.
Do you know that God the Father rejoices over you, and that He delights in YOU - just how and who you are? Do you really know that?! He delights in you. HE delights in you. He DELIGHTS in you. He delights in YOU!!!!
Do you know that God's passionate, personal, tender love for you is something rare and fine and that He loves YOU like He loves no one else?!
Do you know that only you can love God the way you do? That He rejoices in your "you-ness" and that HE ENJOYS YOU???!!!
Do you know that He loves you just as much and as passionately and lavishly as if there was no one else in the world except you and Him?! Next time you see a glorious sunset or taste the utter deliciousness of chocolate, know that He made it JUST FOR YOU. Like there was no one else in the world but you and Him.
Do you know that He loves you as much as He loves JESUS?! Get your Bibles out and read the Gospel according to St. John, Chapter 17. That is God's word. He doesn't lie or play cutesy.
With Valentine's Day coming up in less than a month and most of us - single and married people - long more than anything to be special to someone who is special to us. Do you know that you are deeply special to Jesus and that He longs to be special to you?!
Please be His Valentine. Not just this Valentine's Day, but every day of the year for all the rest of the years of your life. He is Love personified thirsting for YOUR love. When He was thirsty on the Cross, it was YOUR LOVE that He thirsted for.
Oh! Please be Jesus' Valentine... now and forevermore. I can assure you that He will send you people with "skin on" to love you when He knows you need it. But ultimately, only He can love us and fulfill us and complete us in the depths of our being. He is the Original Sweetheart, our dear Sacred Heart of Jesus is. Please be His Valentine. You are so special to Him.
