It's the 14th day of February and therefore it is valentines day. Everyone has this gushy mushy feeling and look all over their faces. Flowers and chocolates are everywhere as guys are trying to woo their girls once again :p
V' day is different among other holidays because it is celebrated all over the world as a celebration of love.
In fact, the popularity of Valentine's Day has led to the flooding of markets with Valentine's Day gifts.
Today Valentine day has become a craze particularly amongst the youth. Young lovers make elaborate plans for celebrating this day well in advance. Those without lovers desperately seek dates with a view to celebrate Valentine's Day in a romantic manner. Shops selling cards, flowers and other romantic gifts are decked up with symbols of romance- hearts, rose and cupid. Jewelers attempt to lure lovers with attractive schemes and vibrant display of eye-catching jewelry.
Lovers holding hands and celebrating this day is a common sight in parks and restaurants. Special Valentine day parties are also organized by many hotels and discotheques. Some people also choose to go to romantic getaways for celebrating this day quietly with their loved ones. These are just few of the many too good to be true scenery during love month. May we always show true and sincere love not only to our loved ones but to everyone as well not only only on this day but to to the rest of the year. After all, God hath first love us even if we are sinners., He chose to love us. Let as always remember His teachings in 1 Corinthians 13.
3 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3 If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. 11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me.12 For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love
