Celebrate a Little!


For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.    Romans 14:17 NIV

Let us rejoice and be glad and give him glory! For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his bride has made herself ready.   Revelation 19:7  NIV
    
When is the last time you celebrated the good news of Christ and that you are part of the Kingdom of God?  We celebrate birthdays, weddings, anniversaries and accomplishments, but we rarely celebrate the Kingdom of God outside of a worship service.

How do you celebrate in your life?  Do you make a cake or special dessert?  Do you go out to eat?  

This week, plan a small celebration just to celebrate your inclusion in God’s family and Kingdom.  Make a cake or have an ice cream party with all the toppings or even go out to eat in honor of Christ.  As you celebrate, offer the celebration to God in gratitude for his gift of salvation and look forward to the day when we, the bride of Christ, will finally be united to celebrate and feast with Christ, our bridegroom.
