No night out, no flowers, no store bought cards for the Thomasson's last night. We did the family thing to celebrate Valentine's Day. For us, love is in the family and in relationships. Quality time together is a big part of my wife's love language. If God has a love language that is prevalent or at least expressed in the scriptures over and over, I think it's the same; meaningful time spent with His creation.
That's the expression of his love. This is what defines love. God sent his son to make a way for us to spend eternity with Him. We didn't have love for him...we didn't even exist then. But he knew us then and he wanted to spend time with us so He sent His son to wipe away the barrier that blocked us from Him. We have a lot of things that hinder us from spending time with those we love. We have to be deliberate with our efforts to make that time. Most of us sacrifice very little though in comparison to God. He gave the ultimate to spend eternity with us.
That is love...if ever you need a definition of love you have it now...
