Whether you are married, dating, or single, Valentine’s Day is a great day to glorify God by serving others. What better way is there to celebrate the God’s love for us? Of course, Valentine’s Day is not the only day you can and should do this, but it does provide a unique opportunity.
Here are some of the many ways you can glorify God this Valentine’s Day!
Singles: For those who are single, it is easy to become self-absorbed on “Singles Awareness Day.” Don’t! Look outward and upward!
♥ Babysit for a married couple who has kids so they have the opportunity to go out together and strengthen their marriage. And don’t forget to have the kids make Valentine cards for their parents while they are out!
♥ Make a special dinner for a widow, especially ones in your own family. Use bright colored dishes and make it festive!
Couples: Spend an evening together evaluating, strengthening, and investing in your marriage.
♥ Take a look at your individual lives to evaluate the weak points in your walk with Christ, which inevitably transfer over to your marriage.
♥ Reach out to a couple who may not have the finances to have an evening out on the town.
♥ Do something out of the ordinary for your spouse!
Everbody:
♥ Reflect on the vast, unmeasured love of God who loved an unloveable, undeserving you!
How deep the Father’s love for us,
How vast beyond all measure,
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure.

Thanks for your comment on my blog! I loved what you said: “He knows the big picture of His plans for me 20 years from now, but He also knows every little detail of my day!”
This is a great post about Valentine’s Day! Your perspective that love is all about passing on what we’ve been given by God is refreshing and so true.
