Reminisce!

Deuteronomy 5: 15
15 And remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and the Lord your God brought you out from there by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm...

Yesterday I had lunch with two (2) daughters of a saint (Crystal Tschetter) from our church that passed away some 2+ years ago.
It was honestly one of the most treasured times for me, just to recall and reminisce about the precious heart of this dear lady.

God has given us a weekly day to remember and reminisce.
The Sabbath was given to us by God to stop and remember, and consider His goodness.

And yet, not many see the true importance of stopping and remembering.
The Sabbath was a time for the children of Israel to stop and recall the goodness of God.

How often do you stop and reminisce about God’s favor?
Have we all become too busy, to stop and recall the display of God’s mighty hand of protection?

The Sabbath gives us an ample opportunity to look back and remember.
Is that pretty standard protocol for you?

I like to take a walk down memory lane, so I can recall and remember the many ways that God has worked in my life.
The practice of a regular Sabbath helps us to be intentional about telling stories of God’s faithfulness.
Maybe we should stop and consider routinely, how valuable our relationship with the Father is...

“Help me, O God, to regularly remember, reminisce and celebrate all that You have done for me through your Son, Jesus.

Thank you for His life, death, burial and resurrection! Amen.”
