I am no expert when it comes to love and relationships. I have certainly made more than my share of mistakes.

Like you, I've hurt the people I love and I've also been hurt.  Pain is sometimes a wonderful teacher.

One thing I've learned though the years is this: Love isn't easy. It takes work, determination, commitment and most of all it takes God.

There are thousands of wonderful books with some great advice on love and romance. But the best advice I can give to you is this -- If you want to make everyday Valentine's Day for the one you love -- follow these simple, time tested truths found in 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 & 13

Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance. Three things will last forever – faith, hope and love – and the greatest of these is love.

I hope you’ll take a moment to listen to the songs below.

Don’t just say “I Love You” with words; let your actions say “I Love You” first and Love like today is your last.

Happy Valentine’s Day!
