Reminders

We are a people in constant need of reminding. I am sorry to say that we oftentimes forget our Creator, and walk right past His handiwork without even noticing, let alone thanking Him. We teach our children to always say thank you, and we are embarrassed if they don't. Yet, we fail to thank our Maker. So He reminds us --He reminds us to look up to Him when we feel the warm sun on our heads. He reminds us to look down at our humble beginnings when we feel dirt between our toes. He reminds us of the Fall when thorns tear at our hands. He reminds us of His beauty and majesty when we look around. And when we close our eyes to pray, He reminds us that we are His, by the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus. " "...be careful, and watch yourselves closely so that you do not forget the things your eyes have seen or let them slip from your heart as long as you live. Teach them to your children and to their children after them." Dt. 4:9
