All in Celebrating
What if all of life was meant to be a celebration?
The completed work of Christ Jesus. In you. Done. Finished. A celebration!
And what if, in the celebrating is really where life, where Christ, is found? Only in the celebrating, in the celebrating Christ!
Because in your celebrating, finally, your eyes are taken off your own whiteness, and put on to Christ and His whiteness, instead.
And, finally, in celebrating, Christ is glorified in you, for your passions and your desires, instead of being the driving force of your life, become an out-pouring of praise and worship to Christ, where He is magnified in you.
And, finally, the lies within your thoughts and your mind, they are silenced, because Christ, the Truth, is joyously proclaimed by yourself, instead.
All in your celebrating!
So what if life were all about celebrating what Christ has already done for you? What if?
Well, change happens. It does. In you, change happens.
When in the lifting of your eyes, you can now learn how to love. Because His love poured out for you at the Cross, where He proved your great value and worth before Him, is what enables you. To love.
When in the resting from your passions and desires, you can now learn how to abide. Because His abiding with you, always passionately seeking you out, is what motivates you. To abide.
When in the hearing of truth, you can now learn how to truly live, abundantly. Because what Christ did for you, to rescue you from death, to give you life, was enough, and that truth is what frees you. To live.
And when Christ is all, and His life is free to live and move and breathe through you, all a soul can do is to celebrate!
To celebrate Christ, the only way life abounds!!
