Who is Jesus in our Eyes and Hearts?

Richard Forbes
Christian, Daily Devotional, Remembrances of Jesus

As Christians, how do we speak of our faith in Jesus? Who do we envision Him to be? Do we see Him as a miracle child born of the Virgin Mary? Do we witness Him as a young boy discussing scripture in the temple? Do we see Him as the man who calls out to others to become His apostles? Do we call Him a miracle worker who turns water into wine and walks on water, or do we simply see Him as a great rabbi who teaches powerful truths? Are any of these remembrances at the heart of our expressed faith in Jesus? ___ These are all things that Jesus was... but in our faith He should be much more. We should not only see the risen Christ as crucified... but we should follow Him onto the cross, into the resurrection, and during the ascension. In all these things, which began on Calvary, we will find our life, and by them we can take our next breath in eternity.

Daily Reminders, and our Selective Memory of Jesus

How is your memory these days; specifically, how is your memory regarding Jesus Christ? Do you need to be reminded to think of Him as you go about your day, or is He at the forefront of your thoughts always?  Well, before you answer my question think long and hard. Our memories may not totally fail us, but there are so many times when they momentarily lapse, or perhaps we put things out of our minds… even God, Jesus, and our faith.

Monuments and Keepsakes of Our Moments with God

Christian, Daily Devotion, Remembering, God

Do you want God to think of you in your time of trouble? Do you want Him to remember what you are going through to such a degree that He will place your tears in His bottle, and write an account of it in His book? When we face hardship we call upon the Lord in prayer, and with Him at our side we overcome it... we overcome our suffering by rallying our faith, and trusting in God’s promises. After each such instance we want to do something that will help us remember, and we would like for God to remember as well.
