The glory of Lebanon will come to you, the juniper, the box tree, and the cypress together,
To beautify the place of My sanctuary: and I shall make the place of my feet glorious.
Isaiah 60:13
~Celebrate Your Special Days~
Keep the spirit of hope and giving alive!
Did you know that celebrating Christmas was rejected?
When: during the times in early America!
The Puritans deliberately passed a law
that all must work on December 25.
For a time it literally was illegal to cook plum pudding
Or mincemeat pie!
I have seen a trend of people trying to get away from the commercialism,
Of Christmas and other Holidays.
I can understand a portion of this, but as I see a sadness also.
Because even in the Word we see the special days celebrated!
How we celebrate them can be fitted for each family.
But let us not have each day of the year be just the same.
Look for the little things to celebrate...
A Birthday
A Retirement
A Lunch Date
You don't have to do everything elaborate or costly!
We do not want to lose the joy of accomplishments,
Or to recognize a special day!
This life can become dull and nothing special to look forward to!
We are Blessed To Be A Blessing...
I think of the High Holy Days in the Holy Bible,
They were special and celebrated!
The festival of Lights
Let us make some of our traditions a matter of the heart!
We don't have to do just as the world does;
But do something unique and special...
Let's not become joyless in giving and sharing!
Be mindful and tender hearted!
We all need love and tenderness in our lives!
It's not how much something cost!
It's that you thought enough of someone to give a little something!
Throughout the year, even the Dollar store has cute little things,
That could be given as gifts!
This is just my sediment and way of thinking!
Every day can be a day of celebration...
We know that it is more blessed to give than to receive!
He who observes the day, observes it to the Lord!
Romans 14:6
I have been busy doing little projects that are easy yet keeping me home
Where it's warm and safe.
The New Covenant does not advocate the observance of any Christian holy days, but neither does it forbid such observance. Romans 14:5 appears to be the guiding principle: “One person esteems one day as better than another, while another esteems all days alike. Each one should be fully convinced in his own mind.” If a Christian is going to observe a holy day, he/she should be fully convinced that it does not violate God’s Word, that it can be done to the glory of God (1 Corinthians 10:31), and that it would be spiritually beneficial (1 Corinthians 6:12; 10:23).
