“For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” Matthew 6:21
Valentine’s day has finally arrived and Love is literally in the air at every card shop and gift centre. It seems as if the lovers can feel, see and smell the intoxicating scent of love or rather the sweet scent of red roses. I guess, one could write volumes on Love.
When we love someone, we want more of the person. To spend time with each other, gaze at one another and listen to the magical voice.
Even when far away, a thought is enough to fill our hearts with joy. Communication is the key factor.
The main focus is on celebrating Love.
Love is the greatest power on earth. It is as fresh and glorious as the daily sunrise, sunset and starlight. Love should be overflowing like a river, the ripples of which should stir the senses. The beauty of Love is best expressed when two hearts speak. Love can grow through the distance. It is the greatest treasure that one can possess.
We all want to love in an extraordinary way; to be a loving magnet. The best way to express Love is to say it. This surpasses any extravagant gifts or candle light dates. All that is needed is a simple Valentine wish which says it all.
This Valentine’s day, let Love be expressed in a specific way lest the silence hurt the other.
And let us not forget to wish the greatest Maestro of love Himself - Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Remember, just as a lover waits for its beloved, so does our Lord wait for us in the Blessed Sacrament, he yearns for our presence and delights in our visits to him.
His Love is endless and ageless!
