Day 42: Celebrate!
I will give thanks to you, Lord, with all my heart; I will tell of all your wonderful deeds.
Psalm 9:1
I realized that I was waiting for some future great moment to celebrate. I wanted to achieve something great and then celebrate. But I realized that we must choose to celebrate regularly. Imagine if you were waiting till your 25th wedding anniversary to celebrate but your spouse became sick and passed away before anniversary 20. While you may choose to do special things when you can afford them you shouldn’t put off celebrating in ways you can afford.
Today I am grateful for the 88 years of life my mother has lived. She has loved so much and impacted so many that it would be a shame not to celebrate her 88th because I’m waiting for her 90th. Celebrate that you made it through today! Celebrate that God answered the prayer you prayed two days ago. Be grateful for the blessings that you have at this moment.
I’ve found that what you focus on grows. Just like when you all of a sudden start to see so many cars of the same model as yours once you have purchased it you will see many reasons to celebrate once you start looking for them. And you will be happier and healthier as a result.
Today I choose to count my blessings and celebrate them!
