Celebrate in Loss
What we celebrate is what we are secure in.
What we celebrate is what we are secure in.
Live in a college football town and Sunday service is solemn after the team loses. Nothing to celebrate when your team loses.
Celebrate ministry success and what happens when you hit a winter season?
Celebrate keeping your family in line and what happens when behavior isn’t perfection?
Celebrate salvation as the highest accomplishment and you see reason to celebrate God in everything.
This is simple. Not easy. So many forces working against you. Comparison. Perfection. Image. Bigger. Better. All forcing you to celebrate only when you win.
In losses, you still can celebrate being saved!
My past is littered with failure. I have a hard time thinking I can be used in a significant way. Why? I think I can only celebrate wins.
If I celebrated my salvation more, my future is tied to what God does in me right now. Not what I failed to accomplish in my past.
