Love Pictures
No greater love hath a man than to give his life for his friends.

 

FR CANTEEN MISSION STATEMENT:  Showing support and boosting the morale of our military and our allies military and the family members of the above. Honoring those who have served before.

On Valentine's Day, we celebrate love.  Usually we celebrate the love between a man and a woman.  However, there are many faces of love, and I believe that our men and women who serve or have served in our armed forces are  the epitome of love.  The sacrifice, the caring, the hardships--they endure all because they believe in our country, they believe in defending her people, and they believe in the rights for which our forefathers fought so adamantly.  I dedicate this thread to recognizing the faces of love that these fine folks show to us in so many ways.  God bless each of them.

More faces of love

 

Valentine's Day would not be complete without some good ol' love songs.  Click on the pictures and enjoy the tunes!  Here's to loving and being loved!

 "Come Away With Me"

The Greatest Thing In The World

Read:
1 Corinthians 13:1-13

Now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love. —1 Corinthians 13:13

Bible In One Year: Leviticus 15-16; Matthew 27:1-26

cover Well-known scientist and writer Henry Drummond (1857-1897) conducted a geological survey of South Africa and wrote what was then the definitive work on tropical Africa. But he is best remembered for his book about love, The Greatest Thing In The World.

Drummond wrote, "As memory scans the past, above and beyond all the transitory pleasures of life, there leap forward those supreme hours when you have been enabled to do unnoticed kindnesses to those round about you, things too trifling to speak about . . . . And these seem to be the things which alone of all one's life abide."

Paul warned that impressive gifts and spectacular deeds may be little more than empty noise (1 Corinthians 13:1). Our best efforts—if bereft of love—ring hollow. "Though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, . . . but have not love, it profits me nothing" (v.3). The smallest loving act can hold eternal significance.

No matter our age or status in life, we all can strive to love others as God loves them. We may accomplish great things in our life—gain fame and fortune—but the greatest thing is to love. For of all that we have done, or ever will do, only love endures. We depart, but love abides. —David Roper

We love because He first loved us,
He gave so we can give;
We love because He first touched us,
He died so we can live. —Sper

Now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love. —1 Corinthians 13:13
