Remembering His Faithfulness

Daily Light

One of the greatest dangers to faith is forgetfulness. Not forgetting facts. Forgetting faithfulness. Again and again throughout Scripture, God instructed His people to remember. Remember the deliverance from Egypt. Remember the crossing of the sea. Remember the manna in the wilderness. Remember the promises fulfilled. Memory became an act of worship because remembrance strengthened trust. Moses warned Israel that prosperity could become spiritually dangerous if it caused them to forget the Lord who had sustained them. The same danger remains today. When life is difficult, we wonder whether God is present. When life is comfortable, we sometimes forget that every blessing came from His hand. David commanded his own soul, "Forget not all his benefits." The Way of Quiet Light reminds us that worship often begins by remembering. Remember the prayers He answered. Remember the strength He provided. Remember the doors He opened. Remember the mercy He showed. Remember the cross. Remember the empty tomb. The God who carried you yesterday remains faithful today. And the God who is faithful today will remain faithful tomorrow. Faith grows stronger when memory grows clearer. Today, pause and look backward for a moment. You will likely discover footprints of grace all along the path behind you.
