Is Valentine's Day for the birds?
According to Geoffrey Chaucer in his 1375 poem "Parliament of Fowls," the romantic celebration is. "For this was sent on Saint Valentine's day/When every fowl cometh there to choose his mate," expresses his perspective.
But there's quite a history about who Valentine was and how Valentine's Day slowly pushed out the Lupercalia Festival of the Romans. History buffs will enjoy this insight.
Is Valentine's Day only for couples? Is this "love day" exclusive?
Author C.S. Lewis wrote a book titled, "Four Loves," which expands our understanding of the Biblical usage of the words, (yes, words - plural) "love."
In spite of the 145 million Valentine's Day greeting cards being mailed at this time, there's one "love letter" that expresses how much the Father loves us and how we should love each other.
We are not only encouraged but commanded to love each other. John 15:13 is one of the most powerful verses that expresses this. Jesus told us that no one has a greater love than the one who will lay down his life for a friend. Then He did that very thing.
Happy Valentine's Day to all of you from the two of us.
