“Be Mine!” It’s almost unbelievable, but that’s the invitation God sent to each person in the world when he sent Jesus into the world to be our Savior! In fact, the Bible uses the same language we use on our Valentine cards: Be Mine!

I am the LORD your God. . . . You are my people.” Isaiah 51:15–16 (ESV)

“My people. “

“Be Mine!”

God invites, despite our sins, failures, and self-indulgence. In the cross of his Son, he forgives, heals, welcomes every repentant sinner. That is Good News in a lonely world! Don’t bypass the opportunity to share it this weekend as you enjoy all those chocolates and cuddle your new teddy bear.

Could you use a devotion to share with your Sunday school class or even as the basis for this week’s sermon? Here’s a free Valentine devotion you might like.
