TALK: Consider some of these ideas
“Who is like the Lord our God, who is seated on high,
who looks far down on the heavens and earth?” (Psalm 113:5)
- Did you learn the prayer that begins “God is Great, God is Good?”
- How do you see the contrast between goodness and greatness?
- Which of these words do think of first when you think of God?
- What was the last celebration you attended? What were you celebrating? What in that day brought you the most joy?
- Do you feel God’s joy when you celebrate?
PRAY: Dearest Lord, you are the reason for our joy and celebration. Help us to share our blessings and stay mindful of them in times when we don’t feel like being joyful. For you have given us an everlasting fulfillment in the gift of your son, Jesus Christ. Amen.
BLESS: May you know the joy of the Lord who is seated on high.
