“What do these stones mean?”
The large stones were arranged just so, a few short yards from the Jordan River. In the shadow of this rocky monument the people were to remember that “the LORD is mighty” (Joshua 4:24). This, of course, makes me want to ask, what things in my life do I arrange so that I will remember God’s good hand? My wedding band? Reflective glances from the doorway at my sleeping children? A note from a friend? Well, such things make a difference, and can be used of God to quietly convict us of His eternal presence and steadfast promises. What stones do you have for your spiritual journey?
“My Times Are In Your Hands”
King David placed it right in the middle of the thirty-first psalm: My times are in your hands. What a remarkable thought! Every moment of my existence rests securely in the safe palms of the Most High God. He knows my future. He knows my past. He knows my immediate thoughts and concerns and burdens. He sees it all. Nothing in my life is beyond the scope of His gaze or reach. The same is true for you.
