Christian Bible Verse Valentines

February 2, 2010 By

Inspired by these “Perfect Pairings” Valentines from Family Fun, I felt challenged to come up with some cute perfect pairings that would be religious… because Christian stuff can be just as cute and fun as anything else, right guys? I mean, St. Valentine’s Feast Day is a religious holiday after all! 😉

The idea is to make a simple Valentine by cutting out a heart from paper, and then decorating it with your chosen Bible verse or prayer. Then match it with a candy or treat that has a coordinating name, and use some double sticky tape to attach it! Be sure to stress the word that coordinates to your treat by drawing it in bold, making it bigger, or using a different color of marker. Here are some ideas I came up with:

Love and truth will meet; Justice and Peace will kiss. Psalm 85:10(This bible verse I paired with a Hershey’s Kiss)

Psalm 85:10 on heart with Hershey's KissStrengthen me with raisin cakes, refresh me with apples, for I am faint with love. Song 2:5

(This one could be paired with apples or raisins.
Both would be healthy choices!)

The fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, self control. Gal 5:22-23(This has endless pairing possibilities. Real fruit,
Runts, Jujyfruits, or even those cheap strawberry candies.)
Galatians 5:22-23 on heart with fruit candyCome, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and enkindle in them the fire of your love!(This one is not a bible verse, but I do love this
prayer and think it goes great with a fire ball!)Prayer on heart with Atomic Fireball candyNo one has greater love than this, to lay down ones
life for a friend. John 15:13(This bible verse goes nicely with a lifesavers candy.)

See how I love your precepts, Lord; in your kindness
