Celebrations!

       We’ve been invited to a Golden Wedding celebration, so we are looking forwards to that with great anticipation. We talked a couple of weeks ago about being made in God’s image, and have we ever thought that God loves celebrations too? Celebrations are a great time of fellowship with each other and God loves to fellowship with His people….that is another way He has made us in His image!

    We read of the Lord Jesus Christ going to a family wedding which no doubt was a time of celebration as we read of the guests running out of wine (John 2:1-10). His mother said to the servants, “Whatever He tells you to do, do it!” Then we read of how He told the servants to fill the water pots with water, and then to take it to the MC of the feast. As they did what He said, the water was miraculously turned into wine….not just any old wine either, but it was the best the guests had tasted!!

    We must always think of how God loves to fellowship with His  people. In some of the Old Testament writings we read of when His people of Israel had wandered away from Him into idol worship, how it hurt His loving heart to see this happen. We must never think we cannot turn to Him in times of loneliness and disappointments….He is always ready and waiting for us to call out to Him at these times!
