celebrate

Monday

“Celebration” is defined as “utter joy in ourselves, our life, and our world as a result of our faith and confidence in God’s greatness, beauty, and goodness.” (The Renovare Spiritual Formation Bible) This may be the most difficult spiritual discipline to actually practice. 

Relying on God can’t be forced or faked. Others will be able to tell. It’s one thing to study Scripture and see that greatness, beauty and goodness can’t be ignored. If you are inspired by these attributes you will have joy pouring out of you.

Don’t be afraid of letting yourself be impressed by God. Pray for this.
