:) i did end up writing some valentines to people and really enjoyed it! as i started i found i wanted to write more and more- and ran out of the valentines i had made... oops!! next year, planning to make more and write more! to love more :)
song lyric for cards was from brooke fraser's sailboats- "we're adrift on a sailboat. my love is the sea. yours is the horizon, constant and steady" i love this song- how the lyrics remind me the truth about our love versus God's love. Our love and feelings towards God are so fickle sometimes- changing the same way the waves change, sometimes calm and peaceful, sometimes violent and turbulent, as storms come they change, when the weather clears up they seem better (though even then there could be a rip current underneath you cant even see from the surface!)... but despite how often our love changes, God's love is constant and steady like the horizon. That is so beautiful... that no matter how we are loving Him, He is constantly loving us the same.... He cannot love us more and He won't love us less- we cannot diminish that love He has for us no matter how we are loving Him at that moment. It also made me realize that when the waves start to get turbulent, we often forget to look past them to the horizon and our vision is obscured and tainted by what is going on around us instead... And when we can look past the waves to the horizon we get a better perspective.
