Valentines for the Soul: Nothing will come between us


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.

How many times have you attended a wedding and witnessed the happy couple, pledging their love to each other? Perhaps they recited vows they wrote themselves or the traditional wedding vows as follows:

"I, ___, take thee, ___, to be my wedded husband/wife, to have and to hold, from this day forward, for better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death do us part, according to God's holy ordinance; and thereto I pledge thee my faith [or] pledge myself to you."

How many times have you heard a love-stricken couple declare, “Nothing will come between us?” Perhaps you have been the subject of that declaration or maybe you made that statement yourself.

Outdoor Worship Service

Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good,
for his steadfast love endures forever.
—Psalm 136:1

In case you haven’t heard, a worship service is being held outdoors this morning.

That’s right. All churches in our area have cancelled “indoor” morning services due to the aftermath of Winter Storm Jonas. But a worship service is being held right outside your home.
