Heaven's Valentine
Posted: February 13, 2011
The heart of God revealed…
To those so loved, God gave His heart.
A homemade, hand-drawn kind.
It was the hallmark of His love.
'Twas Heaven's Valentine.
A heart of kindness, pure and sweet.
A tender heart of hope.
A heart that chooses last-ones-picked
who find it hard to cope.
A heart of mercy toward the wrong
that gives a second chance.
A heart that overlooks the proud,
but gives the weak a glance.
A heart that hurts with those who grieve
and aches for those abused.
A heart that welcomes everyone
society's refused.
A heart delivered long ago
enveloped in our skin
assures a world so-loved by God
it can be freed from sin.
A heart that beat within the hay
and broke upon a cross
is Heaven's priceless Valentine
God's given each of us.
