Valentine’s Day always reminds me of my mom, who often prayed for everyone to get, “more love.”  Paul, the apostle, also prayed for his followers to discover a love that overflowed (I Thessalonians 3:12 NLT). Here are 3 ways to have a greater overflow of love in your life.

HOW TO EXPERIENCE OVERFLOWING LOVE

1. Accept God’s Love – You don’t have to earn God’s love by being good.  (I John 4:10). C. S. Lewis said, “Though our feelings come and go, God’s love for us does not.”

  • Remember that God accepts you just as you are (I John 3:1)
  • Be your authentic and wonderfully-made self.
  • Be grateful to God each day for his great love for you.

2. Discover God’s Love – Fall in love with God.  Discover how to love God with all of your being: heart, mind, and soul (Matthew 22:37).

  • Spend some alone time with God alone each day.
  • Look for him in nature (Psalms 19).
  • Study the Holy Scriptures to learn more about God. 

3. Share God’s Love – You share your love with family, close friends, and others. How do you show your love? Is it your way, or God’s way? 

  • Become less self-involved (Romans 12:10).  
  • Practice becoming more accepting and less critical of others.
  • For some of you, the difficult process of forgiving must happen first (Matthew 6:14-15)

  1. God loves us, He is a loving God.
    I was envited by some refugees from Syria for dinner. There was a storm outside and they told me that they are afraid of God, that He will punish them, the storm might harm them. I told them that Iam not afraid of the storm and I am not afraid of my God, that I know that my God is a God of love, that He loves me, He does not punish me because He loves me just the way I am.
    I thank God that I am not full of fear , but that He enables me to trust in His abundant love
