Today has been a Celebration Day in more ways than one. Corporately, we celebrated our Christian faith in a variety of worship settings and each time sensed the grace of God at work in our lives. On a personal note, I enjoyed the opportunity to celebrate a birthday meal with family and friends and give thanks to God for a blessed life thus far.
This evening I was privileged to attend the Waverley Temple Corps' installation of my sister-in-law, Allison Lynn, as their Youth Ministry Assistant. It was another faith-affirming occasion in which to celebrate God at work - this time in the lives of our youth.
Celebration is an essential part of our spiritual DNA. Look around for reasons to celebrate. You'll be glad you did!
Deuteronomy 16:12 (MSG) ~ "You are to celebrate in the Presence of God, your God, all the things you've been able to accomplish."
