BIRTHDAYS - “Let your loins be girded and your lamps burning..." (Luke 12:35)
In
the Faithful Remnant, "EVERY day is Christmas day!"
Did you know that you CAN celebrate your birthday as "a child of
the Most High True God" every day as WELL? Now you DO!
And on that topic, there is one Scripture passage that everyone needs
to remember on their Birthday: “Let your
loins be girded and your lamps burning..." (Luke
12:35) Now since the Most High True God has Commanded everyone
to keep their lamps burning, why on earth would people want to
celebrate their birthday, by blowing out the burning light that
symbolizes the gift of each year that they were given? (- and I am
referring, of course, to the candles on a birthday cake). And
as people blow out those candles, why would they want to make "a
wish" - instead of a prayer to their Creator? - YOU know, "the
Most High TRUE God" - the One who is responsible for GIVING each
individual, the gift of another year. Now it is GOOD to have
things that you "wish" or "hope" for; but it is
BETTER to turn that desire into a prayer, by lifting it up to your
Creator - and then to surrender that desire to His PERFECT
Divine Will and Plan for your Life - because that just makes sense!
But to EXCLUDE your Creator, from ANY wish or plan that you may have
for your life, does NOT make any sense, at all! Remember, the
people outside the Faithful Remnant don't have a lot of common sense
and reason - and so don't EXPECT them to understand. Happy
Birthday Everyone - for those in the Faithful Remnant!
