Remembrance
Lord, keep me grounded in Your word,
So that my mind won’t grow disturbed,
By the many ramblings of this sad earth
Temper my spirit and recreate its birth.
Cement all of my hope in Your firm grace,
While I mediate upon Jesus Christ’s face.
It fills me with peace and calm restoration,
It fills me with joy and sweet revelation.
It reminds me that heaven is a blink away,
And life minus Him would be gross disarray.
Adrienne Gallagher Dominici 1/29/04
Therefore, prepare your minds for action, keep sober in spirit, fix your hope completely on the grace to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ
1 Peter 1:13
It can be beneficial to recall where you came from. If you have been blessed with great success in your life, remembering how things were before fulfillment of that dream occurred, can be profitable.
This is true of the “born again” experience. Testimony after testimony will point to some one having overcome a special set of circumstances. These circumstance usually are not all that special, some are downright tragic. Why would anyone choose to reminisce about things like that? I believe it is important to remember who and where you were before being saved so that you will never take it for granted. I do not mean one should drag the experience around with them like a ball and chain. On the contrary that would be rather defeating of God’s promise to forget out sins. I mean that we should have a tiny place where those remembrances are tucked away and take them out occasionally as reminders of how Satan stole our life and how we have been redeemed by the precious blood of the Lamb. That is a miracle, a miracle worth remembering.
