Esther 9:28. “And that these days should be remembered and kept throughout every generation, every family, every province, and every city; and that these days of Purim should not fail from among the Jews, nor the memorial of them perish from their seed.” THESE DAYS. Special things happen that we should never forget – The event, not the day is what’s important. For us and our children we need to remember what God sent – And express our appreciation in words and deportment. For when God drew near to meet our need from His supply – He knew our need and showed us what to do. In these special days, our time we do apply To consider things of the past so grace our children know.
Some days come once a year, an anniversary of sorts. We stop what we usually do to this event consider. In our extremity as a nation we look back in grateful thought To how we were preserved from something very bitter. A Thanksgiving Day is when families unite and come together. And hopefully go over the many blessings we’ve received. On that day we review the things that really matter, And give thanks to our God in whom we have believed.
We take a special day to celebrate the advent Of our Savior when He came in grace down to earth below. The Bible makes it plain that God the Father sent His only begotten Son to be the only Savior of the world. We stop to read the words that tell us about His birth. We consider that the purpose was He came to die for us. His coming we celebrate as we consider the great worth Of the One who wants us to in Him put our trust.
There is the call to remember Christ on the first day of the week There we remember His Person and proclaim His atoning death. For those who look on as observers, we pray that they will seek The Lord and through His salvation will for their souls find rest. These special days help us to remember what really counts, In this journey of life where we daily live and walk. The practice of remembering on these days when we recount – Gives great meaning to these events of which we should take stock.
“Lord God in heaven, these days of stopping to consider Thee and the events Thou didst use to bring about Thy plans, are very important to me. May I always be appreciative of Thy blessings, of the coming of the Lord Jesus and of His death, burial and resurrection for me. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.”
