STORIES OF REMEMBRANCE
The memorial of twelve stones was a great reminder of God's grace and power. When Israelite children saw it, they would hear the story and learn about God. It kept God's faithfulness fresh in their parent's minds too.
All of us have memories of answered prayers and of God's work in our lives. How often do you share these stories with your children? Faced with trials, it can be easy to focus on our fear rather than remembering how God has provided for us in the past. Each time you experience God's grace, make a memorial of the occasion in your mind (you might even write it down). These are your stones of remembrance.
Offer strength and encouragement by sharing your stories of God's faithfulness with your children.
