Remember
Remember.
Every believer at one point realizes how much God loves them
and what Jesus did for them in shedding his blood on the cross for their forgiveness.
But the problem is that we forget who God is and who we are and what God did.
This was the case in Deuteronomy, where God gave them different events like a feast
where they were to remember the time God saved them out of Egypt or a feast to
remember God's faithfulness in the wilderness. Today, we need to remember the New
Covenant often, because if we do not remember, we fall away.
We can remember by simply taking time to spend talking to God, reading the Bible, and often
taking communion to remember and proclaim Jesus' death, which means our life.
"For you have died, and your life is hidden with God in Christ" (Col. 3:3)
When we bring to our minds the blood of Jesus forgiving us from our sins,
when we realize that God gave us all that we have,
and when we know that God is love and loves us so dearly,
we can turn around and love others and give to others because all we have is from
God and we have our security in Him.
Take time each day to remember and thank God for what He has done in the past as
well as what he is doing and will do in the future.
It is good to take time and look at what we have been learning, feeling, thinking, and growing in in our relationship with God and in our life in general. This doesn't need to be complicated, but it does take a willing heart to be able to hear what God may be trying to tell us through the Bible, through prayer, through circumstances, or through other people.
