You Made Me
Have you ever faced an experience so painful that you questioned why God created you? You’re not alone in that thought. Job endured immense suffering due to Satan’s temptations. He lost all his material possessions, his children, and even the support of his wife, who essentially abandoned him during his trials. To make matters worse,Continue reading “You Made Me”
In the Night
The nights are challenging for me. I’m a very light sleeper and borderline insomniac. I also struggle with nighttime anxiety. Despite taking medication and staying consistent with exercise, some nights I find myself lying awake, unable to sleep—especially if one of my dogs wakes me up. Then, depending on where my mind takes me, IContinue reading “In the Night”

Throughout Psalm 25, David pleads to God for deliverance and forgiveness. In the middle of the Psalm are two verses about remembering and forgetting.

In Psalm 25, DavidContinue reading “Your Mercy”

The more time outside the better. One of the things we were most looking forward to was the sunsets and the nightContinue reading “His Wonders”
In Your Youth
“Only the Good Die Young” is an old proverb that carries with it a variety of meanings. One of those meanings is that when young people die they’ve not been jaded by life nor have they lived long enough to have cumulated regrets hence only the good die young. Solomon cautions the young about livingContinue reading “In Your Youth”
Foundation of Remembering
Remembering can be a catch-22. Sometimes, remembering brings back good memories; sometimes it brings back bad memories. Now, we need both types of memories – good memories and bad/uncomfortable memories. But, calling back the right ones at the right time can be tricky. Sometimes, we remember the wrong things or forget to recall the necessaryContinue reading “Foundation of Remembering”
Remembering 101
What does it mean to remember? Its basic definition is “to bring to mind or think of again” or “to retain in the memory.” When we remember something we are calling something back from our memory. We are moving something forward that we’ve placed behind. We are taking something from the back burner and placing it on the front hot burner. Why do you remember?Continue reading “Remembering 101”
