Jesus, will you be my Valentine?

Dear Lord, would You be my Valentine? You have probably been asked so many times before, but Lord, would you please be my Valentine? With all of the worries and fears we all have, I need to know that it is Your Heart that truly loves mine Oh no, I'm not lonely, I have a beautiful family and caring friends..and for most that might be just fine But Lord, the Love that You have shown me for all of my days, is the sweetest fruit of any on the vine You know how I know this Lord? You have said You will always be there, whenever I sense a need To bow and to pray on bended knee, to seek Your Word, to ask for mercy or forgiveness for a deed Or to ask for Your guidance and direction when I have surely lost my way.. a warning I should heed Maybe it's just to comfort myself, knowing there are many scriptures to soothe my soul that I can read I've known all my life that You will be present whenever I gather with others to call out your name You have been ever-faithful, merciful, gracious and kind...you have taught humbleness over fame You have demonstrated Your power, provided Your wisdom, nurtured with care, enabled the lame Placed empathy in our being, generosity in our giving, encouragement in our words, now it's my aim To share all that you have given through blessings beyond measure, to let others know of Your love Encourage those who have lost their way, pass them the same support that You provide from above Be humble servants of Your Will, beacons of Your Loving Light, bring Peace on the wings of a dove Bring Hope to a world greatly in need of Your Grace, a place where people need not push or shove In order to move forward on agendas that harbor stress or fear, we know that's not what You seek Your vision entails a harmony in spirit, a mending of brokenness, a rise from the valley to the peak Conquering of fear, hatred and mistrust, paths to new freedoms, now honor is shown to the meek No longer will those who stand up for injustice be shouted down rudely and be made to feel weak Lord, I give you my love, my soul, I yearn for You alone-each moment I'm awake, every step I take Let my morning words be of worship and praise, being so grateful for every movement I can make For every bird that sings, every blessing you bring, for every smile I see, or laugh I hear, a leaf I rake Every plant that thrives, all of my family lives, the bees and their hives, crashing waves or quiet lake I bring all glory and honor to Your Name for all that You do, and now I want to give my heart to You I need to know that you understand how I feel, for there are so many blessings from all that You do I go through the days with so many concerns, yet I make sure to take the time to appreciate a few Of the blessings I hope to never take for granted, Your Love for me is what makes all things a new So Lord, once again, I give You my heart and my soul-there is no place that I would much rather be You have given me life, given me hope, given me peace through Your loving grace-you paid my fee You took away all my sins and pain and wiped the slate completely clean-you made it so easy to see That all I ever needed was Your Love- now we need not feel locked up, for with You we have the key Thank you Lord
