God's Love Notes

Have you ever been given a love note by anyone?

Last summer before actually getting ready to move to another state, I started looking through some things that had I had inherited after my father had passed away. There had been boxes of items and because we were paying to have everything moved to another state, I was trying to sort through items that I did not want to take.

In dad's things there were love letters, photos and other things that I had never seen before. I got through some of it, but then stopped going through his stuff to concentrate on the move itself.

Now, here we are just a few months on the other side of the move and because we are retired and have time, I decided to go through those boxes again that had held my parents precious memories.

And so much has come and is still coming to light about their young lives which I never knew.

I knew dad had written love notes to my mom during WW2 when he served overseas. But I did not know that mom had kept her own scrap book of letters and other pieces of her own during that time.

Her scrap book now is of course, old and getting very crumbly. But what we could make out of its contents lasted through their marriage. Oh they had their times all through it.. Their lives had not been easy. But the love they had from their early years, had stood its time.

Did you know that God has likewise sent us His own love note? They come to us through the Bible, God's Word.  And there are many.

Unlike my parents notes from a tumultuous time in the world during their youthful years,, God's word  has survived through the ages has never crumbled. It has survived all the evil of this world and will continue to do so until Jesus comes back.

Starting tomorrow, I thought we would take a look at some of the love notes in the Bible that God sent to us so that we too can survive that evil until such a time that Jesus returns. I hope you will join me.

May the God of hope fill you with joy and peace as you trust in him so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit. Romans 15:13 

Have a great day in the Lord, Friends. May His praises continually be in your mouth. Psalm 34:1
