~The FReeper Canteen Presents~

Happy Valentine's Day!

Roses are red;
Violets are blue.
You’re sticky like taffy,
And I’m stuck on you.

Tomatoes are red,
Broccoli is green.
You’re the best Valentine
I’ve ever seen.

Lilacs are purple,
Bananas are yellow.
You’re soft and cuddly,
Like a sweet marshmallow.

Any color or flavor is fine,
If you’ll just be my Valentine.
 

Happy Valentine's Day to The Canteen and all our Troops!

Rejoicing Love

Bible in a Year:

• Leviticus 15–16
• Matthew 27:1–26

As a bridegroom rejoices over his bride, so will your God rejoice over you.

Isaiah 62:5

Brendan and Katie beamed at each other. Looking at the pure joy on their faces, you would have never guessed the difficult ways so many of their wedding plans had been dramatically altered due to COVID-19 restrictions. Even with only twenty-five family members present, joy and peace radiated from the two as they said their vows because of their love for each other and expressed their gratefulness for God’s love sustaining them.

The image of a bride and groom delighting over each other is the picture the prophet Isaiah painted to describe the type of delight and love God has for His people. In a beautifully poetic description of His promised deliverance, Isaiah reminded his readers that the salvation He offered them reflected the reality of living in a broken world—comfort for the brokenhearted, joy for those who mourn, and provision for the needs of His people (Isaiah 61:1–3). God offered help to His people because, just like a bride and groom celebrate their love for each other, “so will your God rejoice over you” (62:5).

It’s a remarkable truth that God delights in us and wants a relationship with us. Even when we struggle because of the effects of living in a broken world, we have a God who loves us, not begrudgingly, but with a rejoicing, lasting love that “endures forever” (Psalm 136:1).

Reflect & Pray

What images remind you of God’s love? How does His rejoicing love bring you joy?

Loving God, thank You for rejoicing over me in love.
