“Let all that you do be done in love.” – 1 Corinthians 16:14
Opening Reflection
Valentine’s Day often highlights grand romantic gestures, but true love is found in the small, everyday acts of kindness. Whether through a gentle word, a thoughtful message, or simply showing up for someone, love—like faith—is built in the little things.
Meditation
Jesus’ love was not just shown in miracles but in moments: sharing meals, comforting the hurting, and embracing those society rejected. For LGBTQ individuals, love can sometimes feel complicated, but God’s love is simple and unwavering. Every act of love—no matter how small—is a reflection of His heart.
“We love because He first loved us.” – 1 John 4:19
Personal Reflection
- How have I experienced love in small, meaningful ways?
- How can I extend love to someone who feels unseen today?
- Do I recognize God’s love in my own life, even in quiet moments?
Daily Practice
- Send a heartfelt message to someone who needs encouragement.
- Perform a small act of kindness without seeking recognition.
- Take a moment to thank God for the love present in your life.
Prayer
God of love, help me to see and share love in the little things. Teach me to embrace the quiet ways You show Your care and to reflect that love to those around me. Let my heart be a space where Your love shines. Amen.
Evening Examination
- Where did I witness love today?
- How did I express love in small but meaningful ways?
- How can I continue to reflect Christ’s love tomorrow?
