Take twelve stones out of the midst of the Jordan from the place where the priests' feet stood firm; carry them over with you and leave them at the place where you lodge tonight.
we read this verse/passage together as a staff this morning doing our group devotional.
very often in the Old Testament, God tells the Israelites to set up a memorial or mark days and tell each other stories of what God has done, and.... remember.
R E M E M B E R .
i so easily forget God's faithfulness that i have witnessed in my life, others' lives, and the history of God's people--the cloud of witnesses that I am surrounded by, resounding through the ages past, present and to come... if i would just stop and look back... i'll see a trail of His miracles and faithfulness... marked by pillars, memorials, marker stones... milestones...
God, ground me again and again in Your Word to remember You always; that i would not be so easily shaken or knocked down, but that You would find me standing firm in Your Word and in faith.
