What’s in your 2026 Valentine’s Day wallet? Well, if you haven’t spent your money yet, let me suggest that you just write one of the verses below on a card or a sheet from the notepad in your kitchen drawer, and then write, “P.S. And I love you too!” Be blessed!
“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish, but have eternal life.” (John 3:16 NASB)
“But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:8 NASB)
“Greater love has no one than this, that a person will lay down his life for his friends.” (John 15:13 NASB)
Committed to the climb,
Mark L. King
P.S. And I love you too!
