Remember his Benefits
The second volume in the Help[H]er remember journal series.
It’s here! The second volume in the Festivals of Remembrance journal series has arrived and she’s a beauty…
This series was designed to help sufferers to lift their gaze to things above, where Christ is (Col. 3:1). It isn’t meant to fix anyone, nor is it a substitute for trauma-specialized care. It is one potential way to connect our real and present circumstances with the God who remembers. Suffering isn’t ignored in this journal, rather the purpose of the entire series is to help see the ways in which the eternal and living God meets us in those very circumstances.
From the introductory note in Remember his Benefits (Vol2)…
Even before the words of God permeate our thoughts, the mind is assessing our environment. Is God close? Does he love me? Am I his? How can I be sure? The Father knows it requires both left brain truth and right brain functioning to encourage character formation. So, in addition to instruction he explains the “how” of obedience...remembrance. Central in the content of remembrances are his benefits. That’s not just to focus on the things he gives us, although it’s not less than that either. Primarily he gives of himself; his image, his covenant, his promises, his gifts, his Son, his grace. All of these benefits provide very concrete ways for remembering in such a way to grow our trust, belief, and faithfulness. But I’m not going to sugar coat this either. Remembering is not always easy. At times, remembering can be quite painful. So, we hesitate to even let memories gain access to our minds. No worries. And, no pressure. There is no requirement for what types of things to remember or when. Perhaps consider this option today, this opportunity to remember him and his benefits. Let all other recollections remain stored away until the right time. Consider what he accomplished, what he endured, and how intimately he comprehends our own suffering. Walk with me and consider him...ponder him anew...forget not his benefits.
Our hope is that this might become a trusted resource to accompany you on your healing journey. Journals are available for an introductory price with the code OFFER55 through the end of January.1 Let us know what you think! We’d be privileged to come alongside and remember together.
