Making a List

Lists are all around us. Wish lists, to-do lists, grocery lists, and now the big Christmas lists.

Lists help us organize our thoughts, get things done and to remember.

In the Old Testament , The Israelites  started to forget all of the things God has done to deliver them from slavery and away from the Egyptian army. 

In Deuteronomy 6:12, Moses warns them not to forget.  “But be careful that you don’t forget the Lord. Remember that he brought you out of Egypt. That’s the land where you were slaves. “

Sometimes, we have days that seem to last forever or even seem like horrible nightmares that  never end.

It helps to have a list of all the good things and blessings that you have been given through out the years. “Count your blessings…”

My challenge:

Make a list. Do not forget what the Lord has done for you, there will be times when you feel like you’re in the wilderness, lost, but look at the list and know that God has gotten you through so much and has given your many things to be thankful of.

Always know that God is  in control.
