Valentine's Day Love

So it's valentine's day. I do not have a significant other, and my best friends are over 2,000 miles away so today I decided to celebrate my love affair with God. I am so incredibly overwhelmed and excited and thankful for his love for me. I don't understand why he chose me, or why he loves me so very much. Sadly, I know that I will never be able to love Him to the extent that He loves me. His love is perfect, pure, holy, unconditional, and never ending. What more could I ask for? I don't need a guy in my life. God can do everything that a guy would do for me and so much more. He is my protector, my comforter, my counselor, my best friend, he is always there, and he cares for me more then any guy ever could. I don't need anything or anyone but God.

So this valentine's day this is my prayer:
God,
there is no one that I love more then You. God there is no one that I ever will love more then You. Father, I am going to take this day to think about and celebrate our love for each other. Father, I want You to be my valentine. I want to think about You all day long. Father, I pray that You will help me fall in love with You again. Father, I pray that my faithfulness toward you is greater then the faithfulness of a couple who has been married for over 50 years. Father, I pray that my passion for you would be stronger then that of a newlywed. I pray that my love for you would be greater then the love a child has for his tender and caring mother. I pray that I would be more excited about our relationship then a couple who has just gotten engaged. Father, I pray that I would be more open to You then I would be to my best friend, whom I tell everything to. Father, I pray that You would renew my love for You. I want to love You will all of my heart. I want to love You with all that I am. I want to be obsessed with You. I want to think of You and pray unceasingly to you 24/7, every moment of every day. Father, all I want is more of You in my life. Draw me close and show me who You are.

So I was messing around on the internet and i came across this article and I became completely overwhelmed by God's love.
