I will share about Christian books I have read or listened to.
I will be sharing about my life before and after Christ. I will include stories about my pet and other pets I have encountered.
Remembering God
Have you ever been awestruck by a sunset? Or left speechless by the meticulous details of the living cell, the human eye, the mysterious ocean, or the vast universe? How often do you think about what God has made, or the ways that He has worked?
The psalmist Asaph, wrote …
“I will ponder all your work, and meditate on your mighty deeds. Your way, O God, is holy. What god is great like our God?”
Psalm 77:12-13 ESV
One of the best things we can do is remember God—how He gives good gifts, writes the best stories, and is constantly making beauty from ashes. He has created us, pursued us, and even gave His own life for us. But…
Remembering God takes intentionality.
Remembering God doesn't happen on accident, which is why we have to intentionally commit to reflecting on Him each day. Purposefully remembering God’s bigness helps us recognize our smallness. Deliberately recalling His goodness helps us understand our deep need for Him.
Pondering God’s work and meditating on His deeds compels us to worship.
That’s why Asaph also said, “I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes, I will remember your wonders of old.” (Psalm 77:11 ESV)
When we remember what God has done, we will want to celebrate who He is.
So think about it: How have you seen God’s handiwork in nature? How have you seen His faithfulness in history? Where have you seen His fingerprints over the course of your life?
Take some time today, and remember God.
Working Through The Impossible
Throughout the pages of Scripture, God is known for doing extraordinary things. Light in the darkness, hope for the broken, and bringing help when it seems there is none. No matter what, God can transform seemingly impossible circumstances for His glory and our good.
In Luke chapter one, Mary’s lack of a husband and Elizabeth’s old age didn’t stop God from bringing Jesus and John the Baptist into the world. And today, nothing—whether it’s your past, an ongoing struggle, or a lack of resources—can stop the work that God is doing in and through you.
So, the next time you see an impossible situation in your life, remember that God is a God who works in and through those moments. He wants to talk with you about the things that feel impossible!
