I have always loved these little candy hearts and the messages they convey...
...usually a romantic message of some sort, right?
I got to looking at what some of them said and it got me thinking...
...what about applying some of them to our love relationship with God?
“This is what the Lord says—
Israel’s King and Redeemer, the Lord Almighty:
I am the first and I am the last; apart from me there is no God.
Isaiah 44:6
O God, You are awesome from Your sanctuary.
The God of Israel Himself gives strength and power to the people. Blessed be to God!
Psalm 68:35
How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth!
Psalm 119: 103
He will yet fill your mouth with laughter, and your lips with shouting.
Job 8:21
Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.
Psalm 119:105
“They shall be Mine,” says the Lord of hosts,
“On the day that I make them My jewels.
And I will spare them
As a man spares his own son who serves him.”
Malachi 3:17
And he answered, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind, and your neighbor as yourself.”
Luke 10:27
Blessings from God in a box of candy!
Happy Valentine's Day!
Beautiful! I will likely never look at these little candies the same way.
ReplyDeleteSo cool! I loved this creative post.
ReplyDeleteSuch a good message in that little box. Well done.
ReplyDeleteThat is so beautiful Debby. Thanks for sharing it. Blessings in a box.
ReplyDeleteI agree that the scriptures are a sweet treat! Many of us don't read them often enough. I am trying, but it is easy to skip a day.
ReplyDeleteSo sweet.....loved this post! But I never expect anything less from such a sweet-heart....:) love you my friend!
ReplyDeleteAww, sweet. God is in the little stuff!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, Debby Ray, for this precious post with these encouraging and uplifting words of Scripture. My heart was truly blessed :) Have a delightful week. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteDear Debby, Very smart and a timely post! I have always loved those sayings on the little candy hearts. It was fun seeing them put with scripture. You are so smart dear friend!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Valentine's Day!
Will you be Mine?? Big Hug, Roxy
Roxy....thanks for the compliment, but I'm not sure how smart I am...lol! It is very sweet of you to say though :) Happy Valentine's Day to you, sweet friend...it looks as though ours will be quite "white" as snow is heading our way...YAY!
DeleteI love the scripture you've chosen to go with the candy hearts. Very nice! Thank you for your sweet comment on my post today. I'm now following, sorry I missed seeing that you were already following me, but I'm here now and I look forward to reading your lovely blog!
ReplyDeleteAww...thanks for your sweet comments and for following back! Happy Valentine's Day!

Debby
OK, that is one of the cutest posts! I just loved the creativity of it, and the verses you chose for each heart candy was perfect! What a wonderful God we have - the best Valentine ever! The One who not only gave His heart away for us, but His life, too.
ReplyDeleteI noticed one other heart in your last photo: "BE TRUE." It brought to mind this verse:
"And you must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your mind, and all your strength." (Mark 12:30, NLT)
I do, and may He help me to always be true to that desire!
GOD BLESS!
Sharon, I see it now! I must have over looked it! I'm sure if I looked close enough there were others I could have found a verse for! Thank you for your "sweet" comments, friend! Yes, Jesus is the most precious Valentine we could ever have! A blessed Valentine's Day to you and your cute hubby!
DeleteHi Debby! Oh my gosh, I love this!! I have never seen anyone do a Scripture Study on Conversation Hearts before. Did the idea just 'strike you' or have you done something like this before? It's just inspired.
ReplyDelete"they shall be mine"...now that's a Valentine :)
Ceil
Love, love, love! Sweet, sweet, sweet! Perfect!
ReplyDeleteHappy Valentine's Day Debby...you are a SWEETHEART!
Blessings,
Cindy
