Good morning…
When is the last time you were invited to a 4 year old birthday party? What honor I felt when my soulful, new neighbor sent me an invitation to her son’s dinosaur birthday party. In an instant, would you not check “yes” to this adorable Evite?
“Join us to celebrate the birthday of our almost 4 year old and resident paleontologist 🙂 We plan to have pizza and cake for all (please let us know if you have any food restrictions). Join us from 4:30 until whenever. We will be up after the kids go to bed for those who are interested in staying later.”
Celebrating life’s milestones together is a source of great joy. Old and young. Food restrictions or no food restrictions. Paleontologist, psychologist, or radiologist. As the body of Christ, walking and talking each day, we are designed for inter-generational unity. Community is our God-injected immunity against the stresses and strains of life.
For just as the body is one and yet has many parts, and all the parts, though many, form [only] one body, so it is with Christ. For by one [Holy] Spirit we were all baptized into one body, [spiritually transformed—united together] whether Jews or Greeks (Gentiles), slaves or free, and we were all made to drink of one [Holy] Spirit [since the same Holy Spirit fills each life], 1 Corinthians 12:12-13 (AMP),
Sue
