Although hindi talaga ako nagcecelebrate ng Valentine's Day, I want to make it special ngayon. In the world's view, it is naturally celebrated with your loved ones, especially people who are SPECIAL to you. And dahil Valentine's day is all about love, I think it is time for me to celebrate it with my One True Love, the author of Love, and Love Himself. :)
The first poem is about His gift to me. Nakita ko lng sa internet, just want to share. :)
God's Valentine Gift
Was not a bunch of flowers;
It wasn’t candy, or a book
To while away the hours.
His gift was to become a man,
So He could freely give
His sacrificial love for us,
So you and I could live.
He gave us sweet salvation, and
Instruction, good and true--
To love our friends and enemies
And love our Savior, too.
So as we give our Valentines,
Let’s thank our Lord and King;
The reason we have love to give
Is that He gave everything.

I remember this one, high school pa ako nung una ko tong nakita sa bulletin board sa school. Again, this shows God's ultimate Love for us. :)
V-A-L-E-N-T-I-N-E ala John 3:16
For God so lo V ed
the world th A t
He gave his on L y

whoever bel I eves
in Him shall N ot perish
but have et E rnal life.
Lastly, I just want to share yung first part ng 1 Corinthians 13. We remember this verse because of it's "Love is.." and "Love is/does not.." Nung una kong nabasa to, ang tumatak sa isip ko is the first part, which is verses 1-3.
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.
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.
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.
We love because if we don't, we are nothing. That's why God's most important commandment is to love Him, and second is to love other people. :)
So, Happy Love Day everyone! If you're celebrating this day, celebrate it with the real reason of Love. :)
