Remember

I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes, I will remember your wonders of old.
(Psalm 77:11, ESV)
Bread and juice. A pile of rocks. A special place. A favorite word of Scripture. A photograph. A song. A seashell. So many things can help us remember. And that is exactly what God wants us to do; He wants us to remember. So we keep eating that bread. And we keep drinking from that cup. Though we tend to be a forgetful people. God Himself will help us remember. — Nik Ripken
We will use these stones to build a memorial. In the future your children will ask you, ‘What do these stones mean?’ Then you can tell them, ‘They remind us that the Jordan River stopped flowing when the Ark of the Lord’s Covenant went across.’ These stones will stand as a memorial among the people of Israel forever.” (Joshua 4:6-7, NLT)
But, first, remember, remember, remember the signs. Say them to yourself when you wake in the morning and when you lie down at night, and when you wake in the middle of the night. And whatever strange things may happen to you, let nothing turn your mind from following the signs. — C.S. Lewis
Jesus said, “Do this in remembrance of me.” (Luke 22:19, ESV)
