I give to ': Some things will pass me that can not be overlooked fact - and perhaps in earlier times so with the Valentine Theater - ups - Valentine's Day. The fact is that I long time only a Valentine knew. Which I heard as a young adult, when I lived in Munich. His name was Karl Valentin and he was a Bavarian comedian.
until a few years later, after we had left the country as a family to the Philippines, I became acquainted with the tradition of Valentine's Day. I've got used to it.
The Valentine's Day is attributed to the legend of Valentine of Terni. Valentine lived in the 3rd Century AD and was bishop of Terni, a city in Italy. According to legend, the bishop had married some Christian love. Among them were soldiers, according to the imperial order of the day had to remain unmarried. Valentin also had the newly married couples flowers from the garden gift. According to tradition, marriages were concluded under his blessing, under a good star. It was Emperor Claudius II, the martyred Bishop Valentine ordered. On 14 February 269, he was beheaded for his Christian faith.
So now we know whence comes the custom of Valentine's Day. It is the day of lovers. Man gives away on 14 February, a rose, a kiss, a love letter or a gift. (My wife won this year all four).
is only one thing that always the case with these mayflies. Instead of his love even to maintain throughout the year, you focus on one day in the year, then you spend a romantic - the rest of the year you live again on the back burner. Love must be nurtured and cared for but.
God is love. Love in person. God gives love, love kindles love brand new, capable, self-love and defines love. Yes, he defined what love is. Here are some of the most powerful definitions from His mouth. If we - because there are times even now God's definitions, would strive to love to this way, then each Relationship a chance. God defines love as:
Love is patient and kind, love jealous not
love is not boastful, it is not inflated,
it does not behave unseemly, they not seeking,
it is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil,
it does not rejoice in iniquity,
but rejoices in the truth;
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
The love never ends
now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three;
but love is the greatest among them.
(1 Corinthians 13:4-8a +13)
