Pulpit Report -- May 31, 2009 -- Celebration: Embracing the Joy of theSpirit

Psalm 150

We have come full circle -- we started as the disciplines as an avenue to joy and now we get to joy.

Celebration is a discipline in that it requires us as a church to live with joy and not be Eeyore. We can get run down by the situation but in the end we must embrace the joy of Celebration.

We do this by discovering and remembering who God is.
1. God is in his sanctuary -- he is close to us.
2. God is in the heavens -- he is greater than all
3. God is Great in power and greatness
4. God deserves our praise despite feelings

We have to discipline ourselves to embrace this with joy and celebration regardless of what the world is or does.

Where are You?
