A Prayer to Remember His Faithfulness By Ashley Moore “We will use these stones to build a memorial. In the future your children will ask you, ‘What do these stones mean?’ Then you can tell them, ‘They remind us that the Jordan River stopped flowing when the Ark of the LORD’s Covenant went across.’ These stones will stand as a memorial among the people of Israel forever.” - Joshua 4:6-7, NLT The hand of God was undeniable when we purchased the land where our family now resides. I wanted our kids to grow up with a constant reminder of God's faithfulness and provision. Have you ever set up a memorial to remember God's faithfulness? A friend of ours got a tattoo with the number of stripes that Jesus got when He went to the cross to remind him of the sacrifice of our Savior. One author I know keeps a running list of things she is thankful for to easily recall God's faithfulness. My husband and I set up a stack of stones at the end of our driveway so that when our children and future grandchildren asked about them, we could retell the story of God's provision. |
