Memorial Stones


There are times and seasons

In our lives we remember

More than others

We remember the good along with the bad

There are certain things that the LORD calls to remember

His death and resurrection

In the communion meal

The day of our salvation

All throughout the history of the Israel

The Lord had told them to set up memorial stones

For when they see them they will remember What the Lord has done

And give HIM the glory HE is due

It is the same in our everyday lives

He calls us to remember what HE has done for us

It could be as simple as the sun in the sky

Or as complex as a series of “coincidences” that detour from going a different direction

In all these things we are to remember that The LORD is in control

And it is HE not us that plans our lives

We may think we do, by using calendars but all in all

When things do not go our way we get upset

Instead of asking God what is HIS plan for us

A choice to take an exit off the highway earlier than the one we need to

May prevent us from getting in a car accident

Or bumping into someone at the grocery store

Maybe used to bring that person into the kingdom

So, Turn and listen for God’s direction in your life

It may not make sense to you right now

But when you look back and remember what The LORD has done in your life

You will be glad that you listened to HIM.
