—2 Chronicles 7:8-11
by: Trisha Gerstel.
Too often, when we work hard to accomplish something for the Lord, we think we should be thanked and celebrated. But when the temple was completed, King Solomon and the Israelites marked the occasion with a great feast to the Lord which lasted an entire week. It was a way for the people to rejoice over God’s provision as well as the fact that they had been a part of something that brought honor to the Lord. Take time today to think about ways you could partake in such activities. Consider how you could celebrate the something (a Bible study group, a ministry, etc.) for which God has provided and through which He is honored.
