Loving Others More

I was thinking about the approaching holiday-the dreaded by some, favored by others--Valentines Day... I don't know what type you are, whether you are the wear black to spite the day or wear pink to delight the day, but I have a thought about this year's Valentines Day... My thought is this, what if I, and as many people as I could get to join me, did something to love others for this day...

Here's the thing, I've always been brought up to just love others, and valentines day was never about that special someone for me.  This year could be a painful day for me, but I chose to turn that pain into something good.  What I'm asking is for each of you to consider how you can join me in loving others on Valentines Day... 

Share with me here what you did to love others this year for Valentines Day...

Philippians 1:9- (amplified)

And this I pray: that your love may abound yet more and more and extend to its fullest development in knowledge and all keen insight [that your love may display itself in greater depth of acquaintance and more comprehensive discernment],
So that you may surely learn to sense what is vital, and approve and prize what is excellent and of real value [recognizing the highest and the best, and distinguishing the moral differences], and that you may be untainted and pure and unerring and blameless [so that with hearts sincere and certain and unsullied, you may approach] the day of Christ [not stumbling nor causing others to stumble],
May you abound in and be filled with the fruits of rightneousness (of right standing with God and right doing) which come through Jesus Christ (the Anointed One), to the honor and praise of God [that His glory may be both manifested and recognized].
