God's Love is More Than Enough

This Valentine's Day I have lyrics from a Casting Crowns album, "Until the Whole World Hears" stuck in my head.  It is from their song "Always Enough".  The lyric that is in my head right now says "[His] love is peace to the broken, faith for the widow, hope for the orphan, strength for the week.  [His] love is the anthem of nations, rings out through the ages and [He is] always enough for me."

On facebook today, there have been so many posts about Valentine's Day, and one of my sister's friends wrote "Happy Valentine's Day, everyone!!! All of us are so loved by the love of God: there's no more perfect and unconditional love!!!"  How true that is.  How WONDERFUL that is.  How amazing that is, that we are so deeply loved by God our Father and His love is more than enough for us.  

My prayer this Valentine's Day is that the broken will find peace in His love.  That the widow will find faith in His love, the orphan will find hope in His love, the week will find strength in His love and that we who know and feel His love will let it ring out as the anthem of nations.


"And now, O Israel, what does the Lord your God ask of you but to fear the Lord your God, to walk in all his ways, to love Him, to serve the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul..." Deut 10:12

"This is the message you heard from the beginning: We should love one another." I John 3:11

"Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For everything in the world-the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does-comes not from the Father but from the world." I John 2:15-16

"Love must be sincere. Hat what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with God's people who are in need. Practice hospitality." Romans 12:9-13
"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love." I Corinth 13:13
