CELEBRATE SOMETHING GOOD DESPITE THE PANDEMIC

He told them to celebrate these days with feasting and gladness and by giving gifts of food to each other and presents to the poor. This would commemorate a time when the Jews gained relief from their enemies, when their sorrow was turned into gladness and their mourning into joy. (Esther 9:22 NLT)

In this coronavirus pandemic, not everything has been bad. We have also had victories and good experiences.

This verse talks about creating times of celebrations, specifically to celebrate the victories we have had in life.

People often remember with great emphasis the dates when some bad event or something that happened to them or causes them pain. When they lost a job, when their girlfriend cut them off, when the little dog got lost, when they did a bad deal, when a father abandoned them, when a police officer humiliated them, etc.

But we must train ourselves to think more about victories than defeats.
Remember all the good that can be in your life and celebrate, then celebrate, and finally celebrate again.

Think about it:

What good things have happened to you during the pandemic?
Do they tend to remember the good things or the bad things more?
What things do you have to celebrate with your family?
