Day 180

So today was Celebration Sunday at our church. We took a look at what God has done in our church and the lives of some of our members over the past year. It was fantastic. I did help a little and made some slides, this one has the definition of "Celebrate"



We had confetti playing on the screens and balloons all over the stage. It was a party! One of the things we looked at was Psalm 145, which is awesome, but not my favorite Psalm. That distinction belongs to Psalm 103. I won't put the whole thing here (just a link to it), but I will put the first five verses:

1 Praise the LORD, O my soul;
all my inmost being, praise his holy name.

2 Praise the LORD, O my soul,
and forget not all his benefits-

3 who forgives all your sins
and heals all your diseases,

4 who redeems your life from the pit
and crowns you with love and compassion,

5 who satisfies your desires with good things
so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's.

And trust me, the rest of it just gets better.

Task o' The Day: What do you have to celebrate over the past year? What major events have happened good, or bad? What can you learn, what have you learned? Are you getting closer to that person you have always dreamed you would be? Are you at least making steps? Tell me if you want, but this is a task that everyone should do regularly, and the end of the year is a logical (if nothing else) time for it.

Have a fantastic day, enjoy it.
