Tomorrow is...

VALENTINE'S DAY! I am so excited! I was going to go home this weekend, but instead I am headed to Ball State University for a get together with friends from Virginia Beach Summer Project (which you can read about in this post)! It is bound to be a super great weekend full of laughter and love all around.


I wanted to share Isaiah 43 with you all - and when you read it, read it as if it is a love letter to you from God (I got this idea from this blog!)  Then, try to put it into your own words like so:
"Dear (insert name here), I created you, I formed you.  Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, and you are mine.  When you pass through the waters, I will be with you, and the waters won't overwhelm you.  When you walk through fire, you will not be burned and the flame shall not consume you.  I am the Lord your God, your Savior.  The holy one.  You are precious in my eyes, you are honored, and I love you! Fear not for I am with you.  I created you for my glory.  I formed you and I made you.  I want you to know me and believe me and understand that I am he - The Lord.  There was none before me and no one will come after me.  Try not to remember the pains of the past, I am doing new things.  I formed you to declare my praise.  You are not giving me all of your heart, and you are not letting me fulfill your desires.  You have burdened me with you sins.  But I am your God, and I blot out your transgressions for my own sake.  I will not remember your sins.  Love, God.
Verse 4 of this passage is so sweet! God calls us precious and tells us that he loves us.  There really isn't anything better than the love that God has for us, his children. 

Enjoy your day and know that you are SO loved!
Xoxo, Happy Valentine's Day! Love,
