i remember

In order to know where we're going, we have to remember where we've been.

Often times I take time to reflect on where God has taken me in this journey we call life. I think about cherished moments, ugly moments, painful moments, joyful moments and so on. It's all these moments that make me who I am.

I think about the amazing people God has brought along my path that have spoken life into me, that have encouraged me, that have believed in me and mostly who have loved me. Who I am is an accumulation of these people and my experiences. As I'm reminded of these moments it all comes back to the cross and the beauty of our Savior's wondrous sacrifice.

God, in His goodness, came to us and died a maginificent death because of His love for us. He longs to be with us and use us for His Glory. Let us never forget. It reminds me of the Charlie Hall song My Drink (I Remember)...

See the blaze that burns in me
When I see you and you look at me o Lord
On you I meditate and as I pray

My soul it faints for you
You are my drink
You are my Feast
You are my love
My souls own King

Your body and your blood I remember You
Upon the cross you hung and I remember You
