Celebrate!

“Celebrate God all day, every day. I mean, revel in Him!” Philippians 4:4 MSG

Celebrate God everyday!

That is a thought that comes so easy for me today. You know, today – the day that everything went right, the day where no one criticized me or even the day where my children and husband were happy and healthy.

But what about those days, most days, where things don’t fall so perfectly into place? The days when bills need to be paid and the cash is short, the days I’m ill and others are counting on me, the moments I’m frustrated and others seem so quickly to put me down or the days I’m just tired and the children still need help with their homework.

Even then, celebrate! Everyday means; everyday, every hour, every minute, every moment. Most moments aren’t perfect and praise doesn’t come so easily. Yet, I’m to train myself to celebrate, praise, and adore Christ at every moment.

Begin your day with a prayer of celebration, whether you feel like it or not. Don’t let your circumstance rule over your celebration time. Celebrating God brightens even the gloomiest of moments.

Yes, celebrate and revel in Him!
