You are someone's Valentine...

[Guest guest]

A Heartfelt Letter to all of Our Ladies on the group,

I could just wish you all a Happy Valentine's Day...but I do want to wish you all so much more than that! I wish for all of you so much more...because there is so much joy to be had in living life and in being loved. And I know that some of you are feeling anything but that. These are difficult days for some women here, and Valentines Day can bring out the pain of being alone, or feeling alone even if you aren't alone physically.

But you are not really alone...You are never alone!

There are so many people that love you, but many times we aren't aware of their love. I know there are dozens of people who love me....I just don't dwell on it or think about it very often. But there are times when we need to. We need to know we are loved by many, even if we don't get a Valentine's Day Card.

This group has been a labor of love, and I pray that you are all blessed in knowing that others here CARE about what you are going through. And that we want to help. We get no pay for doing what we are doing, we get no accolades or awards or recognition. The only reward we get is that of knowing that we have done our part in helping others to find some answers for those questions that aren't getting answered anywhere else. We offer our hearts, our experiences, our feelings, our time and yes, even sometimes our finances and talents to make a contribution to the welfare of others. We do this with no expectation of anything in return. We share what we hope has worked for us with the desire that you also will feel the benefit of renewed health and vigor, a new chance at life. We have no guarantees to make....just the offer of what we feel might be a gift to share with each other. I am so thankful for all of you who have come

forward in love to share your experiences and be a sister to those in need! And I am so thankful that we have seen such incredible results in healing and renewal. We are so blessed....

Please don't ever doubt that YOU ARE LOVED!!!

Most of all, I want you all to know that there is someone who loves you more than anything else in this world...that to HIM you are His most beloved Valentine of all. There is someone you can have a relationship with in this life that will bring you utter and complete joy in knowing, more than anyone else on this earth ever could. He will fill the deepest and most ardent desires of your heart with His love, and you will feel joy beyond any joy you have felt before.....beyond comprehension or description. I share this with you out of the joy of my own experience of knowing Christ.

My implant disaster and healing have shown me more of God's love than I have ever known in my life before. He has blessed me in ways that I could not ever fathom. He has shown me truths that I would not have known any other way. But what is so cool is that it is a life long love affair that just gets better and better and better as the days roll by! Just when I think life couldn't possibly get any better....it does!

One of the things that God promised to me when I was ill from my implants is that He would heal me....and He has. But He said to me, "Be Faithful." Walking with God is a daily event. There are days when I don't feel His presence as deeply as I would like to, but it is usually because I have rushed into my day without first giving Him time in prayer or emptied myself out before Him. You see, God can't fill us if we are filled with ourselves. We have to first be empty of our own selfishness to allow Him to do the work in us that He desires to do. And the work that He does is awesome, incredible and just leaves me speechless. His loves absolutely humbles me.

His word tells us in 29:11,

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

and in 31:3,

"I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with loving-kindness."

but most important of all, in Romans 8: 38-39 it is declared,

"For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."

God has declared His undying love for you....YOU ARE HIS VALENTINE! And He will let nothing get in the way of that, once we have given Him our hearts.

I pray that all of you that read these words feel God incredible undying love for you today and always, that He waits for you with a patient love, with arms outstretched. He will answer your prayers offered in faith...I've seen it happen over and over again.

Happy Valentine's Day!

In God's Love,

Patty
