I SHALL REMEMBER!

Psalm 77:11 - 13 reads: I shall remember the deeds of the LORD; Surely I will remember Your wonders of old. I will meditate on all Your work And muse on Your deeds. Your way, O God, is holy; What god is great like our God?

In recent months, I have remembered.....what have I remembered?.....I have remembered and treasured sweet things of the Lord from when I was a little girl. You see, what I saw and experienced as a young child, set my feet and heart on a path of loving God and desiring to do the right thing. I have failed along the way many times, but I know that God has not loved me any less in my failings than when He loves when I'm on the right path.

Here are some of the wonders of old that I remember of the Lord and His people:

I remember gathering with my mom and other believers at church, singing, praising, listening and hearing the Word of God preached. I remember testimonies, I remember the Lord's supper and foot washing following the Lord's supper. I remember people coming to the altar and their heads being annointed with oil and everyone gathered around that person praying for healing, praying for unspoken requests, praying for a Word from the Lord! I remember going down to the river where baptisms would be held and folks coming up out of the water praising God for what He had done in their lives! I remember the stories/Testimonies of God's faithfulness to our family when we were down to our last cracker in the house and God provided a job for my daddy. I remember going to our Pastor's house and sitting and talking about the Lord. I remember so many good and precious times of seeing the manifestation of the Lord working in the lives of His people. What treasures these are too me and I praise You Lord for allowing me to see this. I praise God for a Mom who lived out her faith in the Lord before me. She wasn't perfect and still isn't, but I really saw God/Jesus and the Holy Spirit through her life. I remember that God is the same yesterday, today and forever. I remember that God is unchangable and that He is the Great I AM!

Thank You Lord for Your Word and for bringing to my rememberance Your wonders of old!

I praise You Lord for all that You have done for me,
