Annual Celebrations

The Passover was to be an annual celebration in which the Israelites remembered that God had redeemed them and that He was sending the Messiah. Though they hadn't celebrated the Passover for 39 years it was time to renew that celebration.
As Christians we have annual celebrations. Christmas and Easter are two of these celebrations.
Families also have celebrations and one is the yearly remembrance of our birth, our birthday. Today is our daughter's birthday, the fourth birthday we celebrate in April and the fifth we celebrate in a month. I am glad that we can celebrate their birthday but I am also glad that my children have two birthdays. There is that time when they were born into this world and the time when they were born again.
