My Week . . . Celebration

Question to think about: Is it your week?

"It's my week."
In our home someone is assigned as the really big deal for the week.
~You have first choice to all choices to be made.
~Your accomplishments are featured.
~You are celebrated.
~You are a really big deal.
"My week" provides a venue to appreciate, support, and encourage one another. Of course, we sometimes have been out of control with the "my week" concept. We have been heard to say:
"I'm sorry . . . did you think I could do that . . . hmmm . . .it is, after all, MY WEEK."
The ensuing conversation always ends in laughter because the point is to completely celebrate one another.

I routinely spend time with people that either do not feel celebrated or regret they did not celebrate a specific individual.

The thing to remember is that God celebrates every individual as a "prized possession."

Whatever is good and perfect comes down to us from God our Father, who created all the lights in the heavens. He never changes or casts a shifting shadow.He chose to give birth to us by giving us his true word. And we, out of all creation, became his prized possession.(James 1: 17-18, NLT)

What does it mean to be God's prized possession?
How does that change how we live the life we are given?
How does it change today?

Celebrate all that you have received from God.
Celebrate your life.
Celebrate a specific individual today and the rest of the week.
Celebrate.

Learning with you to celebrate,
Kerrie
