Have you noticed how prone to forget we humans are? Abraham Lincoln observed about his own generation, "We have been the recipients of the choicest bounties of heaven. We have grown in numbers, wealth, and power, as no other nation has ever grown. But we have forgotten God. We have forgotten the gracious hand which preserved us in peace and which multiplied, and enriched, and strengthened us."
Are you keeping a written account of the good things that has happened in your life? Is there a record of the victories that have come about in your life? Some people keep a daily spiritual diary; others record only special events. But in some fashion blessings need to be committed to something more dependable than our faulty memories.
When you’re feeling discouraged, or perhaps even wondering if God or anyone loves you, take out your journal and refresh your memory. The entries in your journal can be a continuing source of encouragement for you. In addition, take the opportunity to share with your children or grandchildren what blessings you have received in your life. The God who has dealt with you so graciously in the past is the same God who wants to work in their lives as well.
