Happy V-Day, friends!
At least that's what one little boy told me yesterday: it's called V-Day. I guess it really doesn't matter what we call it; we all know what day it is--a day to celebrate love and companionship. And how very blessed we are to have friends and lovers with whom to celebrate. In our home last night, we enjoyed a lovely 'sweethearts' meal' sharing around the table with two other couples. It was a true celebration of friendship, companionship, and relationships.
But, it did get me thinking. What about those who have no one with whom to celebrate? What about those who have no family? no friends? no lover? How do they feel about this day? Is it just a day like any other? Do they wish they had someone to celebrate with, or does it really matter to them?
And, since it is a celebration of love--and it is my call as a follower of Jesus to reach out to others in love--what can I do for these folks with no one?
Hmmm, that is a good question: what can I do?
Quit with the tough questions...it's Monday. All I know, is that it must be more than prayers...
