He loved us not because we are lovable, but because He is love. C. S. Lewis

I think that "lovable" is about the last word I'd use to describe myself.  Isn't it wonderful that God loves me anyway, warts and all.

Mercy, peace and love be yours in abundance.
(Jude 1:2)

Happy Valentine's Day!  No matter what your "love" situation may be, the Lord loves you more than anyone else.  His love is pure, His love is perfect, and His love is forever.

For as high as the heavens are above the earth,
so great is his love for those who fear him;
as far as the east is from the west,
so far has he removed our transgressions from us.

(Psalm 103:11-12)

"To infinity and beyond!"..... ;)  That really is how far God's love reaches and how far my sins are driven away.  Amazing Grace!

May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.
(2 Corinthians 13:14)

All of this is ours to receive.  We aren't worthy of these gifts, which makes it all the more amazing.  What a blessing!

For great is your love, higher than the heavens;
your faithfulness reaches to the skies.

(Psalm 108:4)

My blessings are endless and boundless...........

Surely your goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD
forever.

(Psalm 23:6)

We all love the 23rd Psalm.  I can't really fathom what the house of the Lord will be like, but I love thinking about it and imagining it's majesty.

And you are to love those who are foreigners, for you yourselves were foreigners in Egypt.
(Deuteronomy 10:19)

We tend to stick to those who are most like us but God wants us to be welcoming to all.  We can learn so much from people that are different from us and from that willingness to understand our differences, comes love.
